Luke had almost as many offensive rebounds (100) as defensive (103) last year. With more experience and strength, I think he has the potential to improve his defensive rebounding. Obviously, that should be a big part of his focus this summer.
Our defensive rebounding strategy was to have Luke clear out for whoever was playing the 3 and 4 positions. It wasn't his job to get the rebound but to take away the other teams rebounder. That is why he had low defensive rebounding stats but high offensive rebounding.
Henry was a big beneficiary of Luke's clearing out.
Bottom line is Luke is a much better rebounder than his stats last year say; and Henry was not as good a rebounder as his stats indicate.
We won't be a great rebounding team next year, but we'll be fine. I expect a big rebounding year from JJJ and figure Luke (depending on team strategy) may likely average a double double.
