Chris Mpaka is a high-motor, rim-protecting forward who already proved he can tilt games for Tarleton State
Mpaka’s value is built on impact, not flash: in the 2024-25 season he averaged 8.5 points and 5.3 rebounds in 19.9 minutes while leading Tarleton State with 51 blocks, ranking among the WAC’s best shot-blockers and offensive rebounders.[2][6][9] He has a reputation for finishing hard at the rim, rebounding in traffic, and bringing real defensive juice—backed by a career-high 24-point outburst with nine boards and four blocks that showed he can swing a game when his offense is rolling.[8][12][13] This is a forward for teams that want size, toughness, and paint protection.
