Irina Parau brings physical rebounding and veteran international experience to Tulane’s frontcourt
Parau is a **rebounding-minded forward** whose value shows up in the little things: Tulane notes she collected **seven games with five or more rebounds**, and ESPN lists her at **4.1 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 1.1 assists per game** with a **39.4% field-goal percentage**[1][4]. She also comes with a notable differentiator — Tulane says she was the **youngest member of Romania’s national team at age 18**, which points to high-level experience and composure[1]. For a roster needing energy, glass work, and a steady, low-drama frontcourt piece, she’s a sensible fit[1][3][4].
