Cornell Big Red Center – Solid but Unproven Rim Protector
Chris Vandenberg, a towering center for Cornell Big Red, brings reliable rebounding and shot-blocking to the paint, averaging around 8 rebounds and 1.5 blocks per game in the 2025-26 season, but lacks elite scoring punch with under 10 points per outing; his high-motor intensity and team-first mentality make him a glue guy for gritty Ivy League squads, though no major injuries noted – a dependable fit for teams needing frontcourt depth without superstar expectations.
