Prior to graduating from Southridge, Sami attended Lake Oswego High School for two years, but due to complications between him and the varsity head coach, he later decided to transfer.

Sami's transfer was a result of one specific incident, where the varsity head coach referred to him as "Osama bin Laden" during practice.

Sami has played in many different countries and different leagues around the world, including major-league professional teams in Iran and Qatar.
