Duke’s high-efficiency frontcourt anchor with rim protection and versatility
Oderah Chidom was a steady, multi-skilled forward for Duke, and in the 2016-17 season she averaged 8.1 points, 5.2 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 2.0 blocks while shooting 53.9% from the field[1][2]. Her calling cards were efficiency, interior defense and shot blocking, plus enough passing and mobility to fit a modern frontcourt. Duke also credited her as a captain and one of the program’s most productive career finishers, with 962 points, 629 rebounds and 153 blocks[2]. If a team wants toughness, rim protection and low-drama reliability, she’s the kind of glue player coaches love.
