2024-25 Preseason Poll of the Week: Who leads the team in rebounds

[hhcmatt]

Last season's rebound leader Rienk Mast is on the shelf for 2024-25. 

Brice was 2nd in cumulative, Juwan was 2nd in average per game

Last season Morgan was 2nd for ND St

Two years ago when healthy, Meah lead Washington

Some of the others not mentioned might be worth looking into

[Huskerpapa]

Juwan is my choice; but we have the potential to be an exceptional rebounding team.

[AGHANSEN]

We should have a balanced rebounding team in terms of stats.

Meah, Gary, Williams, Morgan and Worster should all be around 5 boards per game. 

[aphilso1]

Juwan is a dawg and dawgs get rebounds.  

[No Place Like the Vault]

Juwan because he is a good rebounder and he will play a lot of minutes. 

[cipsucks]

When Norm left, he must have taken spellcheck with him.

[Handy Johnson]

Don’t Sleep on Adam’s Morgan, he’ll be around the Bucket more often than I think Juan & Brice will. You Can’t Teach Height, & for once we’ve got it in Spades

Really pretty DC neighborhood too, BTW.

Time to order an updated dictionary, Cip!  Dawg is now an acceptable spelling when used in the correct scenario.

Cip may have been referencing the actual question...or not.

With all due respect, I do not see a misspell here!

After last games rebounding debacle I figured this would be a good time to revisit this.

 

Current totals through 8 games (according to ESPN)

Andrew Morgan - 42 (136 Min)

Berke - 41 (151 Min)

Juwan - 35 (201 Min)

Rollie - 32 (199 Min)

Braxton Meah - 28 (109 Min)

Brice - 20 (230 minutes)

Connor Essegian - 20 (170 Min)

Gavin Griffiths - 19 (95 Min)

Sam Hoiberg - 18 (135 Min)

Aron Uhlis - 17 (120 Min)

Cale - 7 (44 Min)

Morgan and Berke are the top dogs for sure, followed by Meah. Juwan and Rollie are getting a decent amount, but I know Juwan still has an extra level that we need to get to.

 

Brice was averaging 7.5 rebounds/ 40 min last year, and is down to 3.5 this year. This is lowest on the team by a decent margin. I had to double check these stats on another website because I didn’t think they were right when I first saw them.

 

Connor is doing fine, if his target is to exceed what Keisei was doing, he is out pacing him in rebounds per minute.

Those numbers from Brice are pathetic. I don't know if the coaching staff changed how they want Brice to play or not so I'll try not to completely throw him under the bus. But pathetic. 

Hot take - if Brice doesn't pump those numbers up to closer to last year from here on out. Zero chance this team dances.

[TourneyBound]

Morgan needs more minutes IMO. Definitely need more from Brice and Gary!!

It does seem odd that Morgan isn’t closer to that 25-30 minutes a night mark. Feels like an above average post player n pick and roll big from what we usually have then handles the ball on the perimeter fairly well for what we want and he’s definitely a serviceable defender and rebounder IMO.  He was a great pull outta the transfer portal for us, great fit

Hahaha perhaps. And I didn't even get to watch the game to see him shut me up.
