After a 29-point performance at the NBPA top 100 camp this weekend Aziz Olajuwon has started to take notice from a lot of basketball programs around the country. Olajuwon is listed at 6-foot-7, 210 pounds, a little bit smaller than what you would expect from the son of an NBA first ballot hall-of-famer.
In Olajuwon’s 29 point game he shot 12-19 from the field and 4-9 from three-point-range. While also having 5 steals and noted as one of the more defensive minded players at the camp. Olajuwon's performance was enough to earn him co-MVP of the weekend's camp.
Olajuwon is a long and athletic guard/forward who can bring the ball up the court or get the ball in the post. He can score from anywhere on the court or at any point in the game, being able to back players down and finish over them in the post or just move right past them in transition. His footwork is incredible, something you would expect from the son of Hakeem, showing them off on stepback threes or his version of the Dream Shake.
Olajuwon attends Clements High School in Houston, Texas where he has played high school basketball the past three years. In his junior season Olajuwon averaged 19.9 points, 9.0 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.2 blocks in 31 games played. Clements High School finished the season 19-12 winning two games in the state tournament.
Olajuwon also holds offers from Virginia Tech, East Carolina, San Diego, Sam Houston and UT-Arlington. Cincinnati being the biggest offer he holds thus far.

The Bearcats haven’t landed any commitments in the class of 2026 yet but Olajuwon could be the first domino to fall as the Bearcats are near the top for a number of high-end prospects.
