Omar El-Sheikh brings glass-cleaning grit and frontcourt toughness to Arkansas State
In the 2022-23 season, Omar El-Sheikh was a double-double machine for Arkansas State, averaging 11.2 points and 9.5 rebounds in 28.5 minutes while leading the Sun Belt in conference rebounding at 10.4 boards per game. He’s the kind of forward who wins possessions with physicality, rim protection, and relentless effort, not flashy volume. The appeal is clear: dependable interior production, high motor, and proven rebounding impact. If your team needs a battle-tested big who can anchor the paint and set a tough tone, he fits the bill.
