Abass Bodija is Fordham’s rising 6-10 inside presence with efficient scoring and real week-to-week momentum
In the 2025-26 season, redshirt freshman forward Abass Bodija gave Fordham a useful frontcourt punch, averaging 7.3 points and 5.0 rebounds while shooting 50.4% from the field across 26 games, including 10 starts.[1][3][8] The eye-catcher is his recent surge: Fordham noted he averaged 9.4 points and 5.8 boards over his last eight games, earned Atlantic 10 Rookie of the Week honors, and posted a season-high 19 points in March.[9][12][15] At 6-10, 225, he brings size, efficient finishing, and enough rebound juice to matter; the fit question is whether his game keeps expanding beyond the paint.[1][5]
