Rebounding - just do it!

Rebounding matters!

  • Top 25% rebounding college teams had a winning record 83% of the time!
  • One college team tracked % of time boxed out. When they hit their targets, they were 65-1.
  • If a team does 10% better on offensive and defensive rebounding, it leads to an increased point differential of >7 points which will decide many games
  • Rebounding matters for all positions. Forwards/Centers might lead the team in rebounds, but guard rebounds are critical and often lead to transition baskets. The best shooter of all time (Curry) averages 5 rebounds per game

Rebounding is mix of effort and position

 As Charley Barkley, the shortest player in NBA history to lead the league in rebounding, said: 


Effort: “I always laugh when people ask me about rebounding techniques. I've got a technique. It's called just go get the damn ball”


Position: “Most of it is position and timing. If you get the best position, you're going to get the rebound”


“I’m hungrier than those other guys out there. Every rebound is a personal challenge” – Dennis Rodman (7 rebounding titles)
