6'7" Power Forward with Elite Rebounding Intensity for Central Arkansas Bears
Otas Iyekekpolor, a 6'7" power forward born in Edmonton, brings unmatched physical intensity and a rare dual-sport pedigree (basketball forward and soccer goalie) to Central Arkansas Bears. While his 2025-26 stats show modest averages (1.2 PTS, 1.0 REB), his differentiator is his explosive rebounding mindset—evidenced by a prior 28-point, 17-rebound game—and his agility from sprinting 110m/200m hurdles. He has no known injury history, plays with relentless grit, and thrives in high-pressure defensive roles. Ideal for teams needing a versatile, high-energy forward who can anchor the paint and transition quickly, Otas is a culture-first fit for any competitive roster.
