Andre Drummond has the highest percentage. He has the highest percentage. Slight error with career rebound avg. I meant to say it’s higher than Rodman which it is.
Rodman on every list is considered the greatest rebounder of all time. No one in the history threw their body around the court for a board or out jumping 7 footers at 6’7.
Wilt and Bill were the biggest players on the court during their era . They weren’t not playing with highly athletic and tall players that replicated them. They were the first of their kind!
Barkley and Rodman were battling in the biggest era of the big man and power forwards
Shaq David Robinson Hakeem Patrick Ewing. Mutumbo Mourning Dourgthy Malone Karl Malone Oakley Mahorn Lambieer
Rodman was winning rebound titles avg 17 and 18 boards a game in back to back seasons
Barkley avg double digit rebounds in all but one season, his rookie season!!
Barkley was like 6’4. Rodman was 6’ 7 and his was dominating the league even before the muscular years in Chicago.
Being undersized in a land of some of the greatest centers of all time is way greater than 7’1 - 7’3 centers in a more limited playing era ....and doing it while guarding positions 1-5 and winning defensive player of the year!
