Nazareth Fisher brings a bruising rebound game and efficient finish to EIU’s frontcourt
In the 2025-26 season, Nazareth Fisher has been a steady interior presence for Eastern Illinois, averaging 4.1 points and 4.2 rebounds in 15.2 minutes while shooting 55.3% from the field and starting 26 of 29 games[9]. He’s not a high-usage scorer, but his value is obvious: he rebounds on both ends, protects the rim with 0.5 blocks per game, and brings proven double-double production from Point Park, where he averaged 11.3 points and 11 rebounds per game in 2024-25[1][15]. EIU also noted he battled back from an early-season shoulder injury, which makes his recent efficiency and steady minutes even more encouraging[11].
