Josh Linder is North Greenville’s rim-protecting forward with defensive pop
In the 2025-26 season, Josh Linder is a 6-foot-8 sophomore forward for North Greenville whose standout trait is rim protection, highlighted by a 7-block game against Emmanuel and an early ESPN game log showing he can impact winning even when he is not scoring heavily.[7][1] He looks like a fit for teams that need length, energy, and a defense-first frontcourt piece; earlier college production at Georgia State also suggests he can contribute efficiently as a rebounder and low-usage finisher when given minutes.[4]
