1. Ben Lammers | G. Tech Yellow Jackets | 4.7 Offensive Rebounds P/G

Lammers is currently the best player in offensive rebounding this season in the ACC. He production on offense has helped the Yellow Jackets to a 6-3 record, but they really haven’t played a tough slate of opponents yet this season.

Their best win this season is probably VCU and their “best” loss has been Tennessee.

Here is some key information about Lammers, according to the Yellow Jackets’ athletics website:

"Developed into a key reserve in the post for Georgia Tech last season as a sophomore after he added 20 pounds of muscle in the off-season True center who can rebound in and out of his area, runs the court well, and has improved his ability to step out and make shots Plays big and knows how to use his body to seal defenders in the lane where he can catch and finish around the rim at a high percentage."

Unlike many of the others on this list, I don’t expect Lammers to be a match-up nightmare for the Cardinals in 2016-2017.
