Some players really take it seriously when it comes to grabbing rebounds. Throughout Basketball Champions League history, fifteen players posted 16 or more in a single game with Alpha Kaba and Venky Jois making the list twice.

The young 2019-20 regular season added a couple of more players in the forms of Shevon Thompson and Jasiel Rivero. Both players hit the mark in Gameday 2.

The Jamaican center took down 17 for Filou Oostende versus UNET Holon completing the new season record. On his part, the Cuban big man had 16 in San Pablo Burgoswin over Anwil Wloclawek to become the first BCL player with at least 16 boards coming off the bench.

The all-time rebounding effort high sits at 19 and is held by Keith Clanton. Check out the top rebounding performances in a single game with the green bars representing list newcomers Thompson and Rivero.
