Rebounding-first forward who can quietly swing a game
In the 2012-13 season, Kelvin McNeil was UNCG’s glue guy at forward, playing all 31 games, starting 14, and leading the Spartans with 6.4 rebounds per game while adding 5.5 points per contest. His differentiators were efficiency, toughness, and board work: he shot 46.5% from the field, posted four double-doubles, and ranked ninth in the Southern Conference in rebounding. The appeal here is simple—he’s the kind of high-motor, low-drama frontcourt piece who helps a team win possessions, not just box scores.
