DeMarcus Cousins (2011-Present)

DeMarcus “Boogie” Cousins averaged 12.1 defensive rebounds, 2.1 steals, and 31.9 points per 48 minutes played. What a versatile scoring threat! Sadly, his standing has been hurt by a turnover issue and a lack of rings. While he is with the Golden State Warriors, this might no longer be the case soon.

Artis Gilmore (1972-1988)

Called the “A-Train”, he is the best rebounder college basketball has ever seen. This high-percentage shooter was the all-time leader in this category when he retired. He sank almost 60% of his career shots. He averaged 12.3 rebounds and 18.8 points per game during his Hall-Of-Fame career. He had 11 All-Star Game appearances, 4 All-Defensive first team selections, and an MVP season. What a legend!
