Chattanooga’s shot-blocking wrecking ball with pro-level rim protection
In the 2016-17 season, Justin Tuoyo was the definition of a defensive problem-solver for Chattanooga: he led the Southern Conference in blocks, ranked sixth nationally at 2.9 blocks per game, and finished with 87 blocks while also shooting a blistering .645 from the field[10][11]. He was a three-time SoCon Defensive Player of the Year, and his game translated because he protected the rim without needing touches, ran the floor, and gave his team high-efficiency scoring around the basket[10][14]. If your team wants a smart, physical, paint-anchoring forward with proven elite defensive impact, he’s a very real fit[3][6].
