O.D. Anosike
Avellino
Rebounds: 10,9 per game
O.D. Anosike emerged for the second time as the top rebounder in the Italian championship in as many years of his professional career. Last year with Scavolini, this year with Avellino. His streak is even bigger since he was the top rebounder in the NCAA and his two last college years at the University of Siena. He is after all a player that is worth watching.
Second: James Mays (Brindisi): 9,4
Third: Shane Lawal (Sassari): 9,2
