Three-star guard Hassan Koureissi commits to Fordham

Hassan Koureissi, a three-star in the 2026 class, has committed to Fordham, Rivals is told.

The 6-foot-3 guard out of White Plains (NY) Archbishop Stepinac chose the Rams over Richmond, and others.

“Coach (Mike) Magpayo has an excellent track record developing guards with size who can play heavy out of pick and roll actions,” Koureissi told Rivals. “He was very blue with me and his vision he has for me.”

Hassan Koureissi is the industry’s No. 180 overall player and Rivals’ No. 9-ranked player in the state of New York.

Koureissi on his commitment to Fordham

“They see me as a point guard, running the offense,” Koureissi said. “They love my pace for the game, how I communicate with teammates, and the IQ I have.”

Koureissi played in 30 games for an Archbishop Stepinac team that finished 26-4 overall last season, and 14-1 in league play. He averaged 11.0 points, 5.4 rebounds, 3.0 assists, and 1.6 steals while shooting 48.6 percent from the field.

Playing with the PSA Cardinals organization throughout Nike’s Peach Jam this summer, Koureissi averaged 9.0 points, 2.8 assists, and 2.0 steals per game. Throughout his process, he claimed offers from Hofstra, La Salle, UMass, Old Dominion, Dayton, Iona, St Bonaventure, Manhattan, and others. He only visited Richmond and Fordham prior to his commitment.
