Moreover, only five players have pulled down more rebounds entering Round 6 than Koumadje. His 6.8 rebounds per game is even more impressive given the fact that among the players ranked top 20 in rebounding so far this season, no player has played fewer minutes than Koumadje (18:15 mpg.).
It all leads to Koumadje leading the EuroLeague in per-minute PIR (37.2 prorated over 40 minutes) and ranking second per-minute in rebounding (14.9 extrapolated over 40 minutes).
After averaging a PIR of 7.9 entering this season, posting 5.6 points on 70.3% three-point shooting, along with 4.2 rebounds and a total of 16 blocked shots in 25 games, Koumadje has elevated his game to new heights.
He is poised to keep it up in Round 6 when ALBA looks to get back on the winning track as it travels to play Zalgiris Kaunas.
