Brazilian big with bounce, edge, and a comeback story
Rodrigo Peggau entered Duquesne as a 6-8 forward known as a high-energy athlete who can run the floor, and his profile was shaped by a disrupted early college career after knee injuries and surgery in 2007-08 and 2008-09. In his first full season back, he appeared in 28 games in 2010-11, averaging 1.3 points and 1.6 rebounds in 7.8 minutes, which points to a rotational big whose value came from motor and effort more than box-score volume. If you want a tough, rangy frontcourt piece with resiliency and some international flavor, he fits the mold.
