Versatile 6-8 Forward Who Brings Feel, Touch, and Team Impact
Rutayisire’s value is bigger than the box score: Niagara listed him as a 6-8 forward, and coach Greg Paulus praised his communication and the ways he impacts winning beyond stats. In the 2023-24 season, he posted 2.1 points and 0.9 rebounds per game in 25 appearances, while earlier at Barton he averaged 7.2 points, 3.7 rebounds, and shot 62.3% from the field. He looks like a low-drama, high-IQ fit for a team needing frontcourt length, connective play, and a reliable hustle piece.
