Physical frontcourt piece with size, rebounding juice, and a blue-collar fit
Charles Gavin’s appeal is straightforward: a 6-8, 250-pound frontcourt player who brings size and interior toughness to Western Illinois. In his 2017-18 season, he averaged 2.2 points and 1.8 rebounds in 18 games, showing more role-player value than box-score pop, but his presence was noticeable enough that the coaching staff specifically praised his bench spark and ability to keep the team in rhythm when called on. He looks like a fit for teams needing a physical, low-drama big who can absorb contact, rebound, and provide steady minutes rather than headline-grabbing offense.
