Oakland's Rebounding Power Forward with Pro Potential
Nikita Telesford, a 6'1" forward for Oakland Golden Grizzlies, stood out in the 2018-19 season with 26 starts in 30 games, ranking tied for 14th in the Horizon League in offensive rebounds per game (2.0) and pulling down a career-high 10 vs. WSU; her season-high 17 points came three times, complemented by solid blocks (tied 14th in league at 0.6/gm). A gritty rebounder with post efficiency, she transitioned seamlessly to Concordia Stingers in 2019-20 on a Master's, showcasing relentless intensity and versatility—ideal for teams needing tough, board-crashing forwards who elevate frontcourt defense.
