Fordham’s Stretch-Big With Real Two-Way Bite
In the 2017-18 season, Prokop Slanina was Fordham’s do-it-all frontcourt engine, averaging 12.6 points and 5.1 rebounds while shooting 49.8% from the field and adding 37 blocks in 29 games[1][2]. The differentiator is the blend: a 6-10 forward who could score inside and out, protect the rim, and handle enough playmaking to matter when possessions got messy[1]. The catch? He missed the entire 2018-19 season with an injury, so any fit conversation should weigh his skill set against durability and long-term availability[1].
