2023 rankings were finalized on 6/22/23.

Height: 6-8
Weight: 190
College: Milwaukee
Classification: Fifth-Year Senior
Birthdate: 6/3/1998

Projected Draft Range: Likely Undrafted

Pros:

Strong finisher around the basket
Excels at scoring on off-ball motion plays
Adequate rebounder
Decent defender
Good shot blocker
Very good athlete
Solid motor

Cons:

Needs to improve his shooting
Must extend his shooting range
Needs to improve his playmaking skills
May be fairly raw offensively
Not an elite rebounder
Can have lapses defensively
Classic tweener, may be in between forward positions
Old for a draft prospect, may have limited upside

Summary:

Ahmad Rand is a very athletic, high-motor combo forward that played for the Milwaukee Panthers this past season. He played well at the 2023 NTX Combine and is an athletic interior player, but he may be a tweener, as he doesn’t possess a whole lot of perimeter skills and is very undersized to play inside. He is a long shot to be drafted, but his strong set of physical tools and ability to play inside could enable him to carve out a long playing career in professional basketball.
