Rebounds

[edit]

In basketball, a rebound is the act of gaining possession of the ball after a missed field goal or free throw. An offensive rebound occurs when a player recovers the ball after their own or a teammate's missed shot attempt, while a defensive rebound occurs when a player recovers the ball after an opponent's missed shot attempt.[1] The National Basketball League of Canada's (NBL) rebounding title is awarded to the player with the highest rebounds per game average. The London Lightning have had three players lead the league in rebounding: Gabe Freeman, Stephen Maxwell, and Marvin Phillips. Freeman finished with the highest rebounding average in NBL Canada history in 2012.[4]
