    We need more players attacking the boards for rebounds

    Extra chances mean extra points

    Such a critical part of the game that some players don't do their best at

    jj's been saying this since day one, so the fact that we don't do it is pretty problematic.

    I don’t get it.
    His coaches are begging him to rebound and he’s like,”Nah, I’m good with just buckets.”

    If he isn't going to put in effort to rebound he just needs to come off the bench as a popcorn popper.

    From what we’ve seen previously, his effort and production wane when coming off the bench. Once LeDrama is ready, then Rui can move down.
