Rim-Protecting, Floor-Spreading Forward with Real Two-Way Pop
In the 2015-16 season, Jarrod Uthoff was the kind of forward coaches love: 18.9 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 2.6 blocks per game while hitting 38.2% from three, a rare blend of shot-blocking and stretch scoring for Iowa[1][4]. He stood out not just for the numbers but for his defensive timing, versatility, and ability to impact both ends without needing constant touches—plus he was one of the Big Ten’s top producers on a No. 16 national ranking team[13]. If you need a savvy, high-IQ frontcourt fit who can protect the rim, space the floor, and keep possessions clean, he checks a lot of boxes[1][13].
