8. Mangok Mathiang | Louisville Cardinals | 2.9 Offensive Rebounds P/G

Here we go with the first Louisville basketball player on this list. Mathiang has been doing a great job this year with giving his poor shooting Cardinals more chances to get points. Louisville is one of the worst shooting teams in the entire country, but the effort of Mathiang has helped the Cards climb into the top ten in this week’s poll.

It’s going to be extremely important that Mathiang can sustain this type of production throughout conference play.

There are many players on this list that Louisville will be playing and most of the same guys are also very productive grabbing defensive rebounds as well.

Simply put, Mathiang will have his work cut out for him through the Cardinals’ tough ACC slate of opponents.
