Ohio’s rugged paint presence and glass-eating forward
In the 2018-19 season, Doug Taylor was the kind of forward coaches love: a physical interior defender and rebounder who led Ohio with 6.8 rebounds per game, 50 blocks, and a team-best 58.9% shooting from the floor. His value went beyond box-score stuffing—he averaged 8.6 points in a low-usage role, protected the rim, and brought steady toughness. That profile makes him a fit for teams needing defense, boards, and efficiency rather than high-usage scoring.
