Power Ranking Trend

Power Ranking By Week
WEEK RECORD RANK COMMENTS
Week 9 3-6 12

I said they’d upset a team in round 1, we’ll now they have a rematch against Medina. 

Week 8 3-5 12

Riyadh is winning their first round matchup, y’all heard it hear first.

Week 7 2-5 13

They let one slip away.

Week 6 2-4 13

RIYADH WITH THE HUGE UPSET! Omar Hussein has been BALLIN’! 29 points, 6 of 12 from 3. They held Beirut to 3-23 from the great beyond forced 14 turnovers. Not sure which version of this team we will get, week in and week out. But for now, enjoy the win. 

Week 5 1-4 14

I expect much more out of them. 

Week 4 1-3 13

It was only a matter of time until they got their first W. Deadly backcourt duo, not one any teams want to face. 

Week 3 0-3 15

Omar Hussein with a 30 piece. This is my pick for upset of the week. Riyadh gets into the win column, you heard it here first.   

Week 2 0-2 14

They were down big in the first half and made it a ball game down the stretch. The rebounding margin ended up being the difference maker. Kareem and Omar are very capable of keeping them in every game and once Chris gets going, this team won’t be a fun match up.

Week 1 0-1 12

This team would have been higher if it weren’t for a 2nd half meltdown. They have years of MB experience and chemistry so not quite sure how you give up an 18 point lead. Luckily for them their week 2 opponent did the same exact thing.
