Columbia’s do-it-all forward with elite efficiency and veteran savvy
In the 2007-08 season, John Baumann was a captain-level anchor for Columbia, averaging 16.1 points and 6.7 rebounds while shooting 51.4% from the floor and leading the Ivy League in three-point percentage at 57.8%. He wasn’t just a scorer—he was a tough, high-IQ forward who finished inside, stretched the floor, and consistently delivered in big moments, with a reputation as the “heart and soul” of the team. If you want a reliable, efficient, competitive veteran who raises a team’s floor, he’s exactly the kind of fit that travels well.
