New VCU basketball recruit played for Egypt’s national team
Virginia Commonwealth University’s latest basketball signee hails from Alexandria. No, not Alexandria, Va., but Alexandria, Egypt. Ahmed Hamby Mohamed, who turns 22 in August, is a 6-foot-9, 245-pound transfer from Lee College in Baytown, Texas. He averaged 16.2 points and 10.7 rebounds for the junior college team this past winter. Before that, he signed with the University of Houston but never played there.
