Team Preview: Morphin Time!
After parting ways with his former team, Ziko Pepic set out to retool and gear up with a new squad. While their previous attempt at teaming up in the OC Basketball League didn’t go as planned, Daylyt Campbell and Ziko had always envisioned joining forces in a Muslim basketball league setting. This time around, despite both players being veterans, they’ve assembled one of the deepest and most complete rosters they’ve played on together.
Dwayne Lee headlines the group as a dynamic scoring guard capable of lighting it up on any given night and firmly enters the season as an MVP candidate. Raz Taylor brings relentless energy on both ends of the floor, an athletic forward whose defensive impact puts him squarely in the DPOY conversation. Yaser Sarwari adds a modern stretch-big element, able to catch fire from deep and create valuable spacing for the team’s slashers.
At the point, Sabri Elfarra injects pace and pressure, constantly attacking defenders and keeping the offense moving. Azaan Khan is a versatile, high-IQ contributor who can score and defend across multiple positions. Collin Jex may be pound-for-pound the best rebounder in the league, consistently outworking bigger bodies. And when Ismail Marusca gets rolling, he remains one of the league’s most dangerous shooters.
Expect this team to play fast, gritty, and fearless, with the ability to fill it up from deep. Fittingly, their Morphin Time! Power Rangers-inspired identity reflects exactly who they are—always ready to “power up.” Don’t be surprised if this squad emerges as the dark horse of the league this season.
