Utah’s Veteran Frontcourt Anchor with Elite Rebounding Intensity
Kim Tillie, a 6'11" Dutch-French power forward who graduated from Utah in 2010, is now serving as a Graduate Student Manager for the Runnin’ Utes in the 2026-27 season. Though his college stats (4.8 PPG, 4.4 RPG, .479 FG%) reflect a steady contributor, his true differentiator is his relentless rebounding intensity and frontcourt versatility—he could play small-ball center and finished top 20 in the MWC in total rebounding. With no major injury history and a personality defined by quiet leadership and durability, Tillie offers invaluable mentorship and tactical depth. He’s a perfect fit for teams needing a veteran presence who understands Utah’s system, even if he’s not an active player. Care about him for his behind-the-scenes impact and proven resilience in high-pressure college basketball.
