Rebounding-first forward who brought steady, high-motor value to Middle Tennessee
Ottley was a dependable, physical frontcourt piece for Middle Tennessee, highlighted by a 2010-11 season in which he started 20 of 32 games and averaged 5.2 rebounds in 19.6 minutes per game, with 4.7 points per game and a 40.8% field-goal rate. His main differentiator was work on the glass and a blue-collar style that fit a hard-nosed team, while team coverage from the program described the Blue Raiders as fast, athletic, and energized during his era. He looks like a fit for teams needing toughness, rebounding, and low-ego role production rather than shot-creation.[5][3]
