Scouting Report

Isaiah Abraham is an explosive wing. He has great measurables with long arms and good positional size. At his core, Abraham is a shot-maker. He has touch, range, and confidence from anywhere on the floor. He is going to have to shore up his footwork and balance, which will help with his shot selection and shot-making. Abraham is able to attack the rim in straight lines and finish well above the rim in transition. He can get to his spots off one and two dribble pull-ups. Abraham has the upside, both physically and athletically, to be a solid team defender; there is a toughness in there, and with his size. Is confident. Abraham’s father, Faisal Abraham, played at Marquette, and his aunt Tajama Abraham Ngongba played at George Washington. – On3’s Jamie Shaw
