a versatile UMES wing with old-school toughness and bench-pop potential
Omar Akram has the profile of a classic guard/forward: versatile, physical, and able to give Maryland Eastern Shore lineups a different look with size on the wing. His online footprint shows him as a 6-5 junior in UMES’s 2007-08 roster and a player who could flash energy in limited minutes, including a career-high 16 points and 11 rebounds in high school and a 7-point, 6-rebound burst off the bench in a 2008 game. If you value a gritty role player who can rebound, defend multiple spots, and bring spark more than flash, he’s your kind of guy.
