YSU's Rebounding Machine with Elite All-Around Versatility
In the 2025-26 season, Vladimer Salaridze is averaging 7.9 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 1.6 assists off the bench for Youngstown State, shooting 44.4% FG and 33.9% from three in 17.1 minutes per game[1][2][5]. This Georgian forward's true differentiator shines through his proven do-it-all intensity—last year at UT Martin, he was the NCAA D1's only player with 300+ points, 250+ rebounds, 75+ assists, 60+ steals, and 30+ threes, leading the OVC in offensive boards (2.8/gm)[1]. Clutch performer with no notable injury history, his high-motor rebounding, defensive tenacity, and efficient scoring make him a perfect glue-guy fit for contending teams needing versatile frontcourt depth.[1][2]
