Efficient interior piece in UC Irvine’s 2006-07 frontcourt
In the 2006-07 season, Wolfgang Gieler gave UC Irvine a compact, high-efficiency post option: 1.9 points and 1.0 rebounds per game while shooting 56.3% from the field across 13 appearances.[1][2] At 6-9 and 248 pounds, he profiles as a true interior body whose value comes more from size, rim presence, and finishing than volume scoring.[2] The stat line says “role player,” but the fit question is simpler: if your team needs a sturdy, no-drama big who can defend, absorb contact, and convert close to the basket, Gieler is that kind of low-maintenance frontcourt ingredient.[1][3]
