A rugged, rebound-first forward who brought winning habits to Sam Houston
In the 2022-23 season, Tristan Ikpe gave Sam Houston a physical, high-effort frontcourt presence: 4.5 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 0.5 blocks per game while shooting 45.0% from the field and 42.9% from three in limited minutes. His defining traits are toughness, rebounding instincts, and versatility—he was a proven double-double machine at Blinn College, where he led the nation’s junior-college ranks in rebounds and piled up 22 double-doubles. If your team wants a blue-collar forward who competes hard and does the dirty work, Ikpe fits.
