sturdy, low-mistake frontcourt rebounder with proven finish-around-the-rim value
Waterstradt’s calling card at Oakland was interior toughness: in the 2007-08 season, he ranked 14th in the league in offensive rebounds per game (1.77) and 19th in rebounds per game (4.5), then finished his senior year with 4.9 points and 5.3 rebounds per game while helping Oakland reach the CIT in 2008-09. He fit as a physical, blue-collar center who brought second-chance possessions, reliable effort, and board work more than flashy scoring. If you want a dependable paint presence who can anchor effort and rebounding, he fits well.[1][2]
