NBA 2K21: Best Rebounders in MyLEAGUE - Antetokoumpo, Drummond, Gasol & more

Having a big man who can pull down those rebounds is vital to any top team.

Defensively, it will prevent the opponent from scoring, whilst being good on the offensive glass can help towards those all-important second-chance points.

Here are the best on the glass in 2K21.

Defensive Rebounders

Each player in 2K21 is given a rebound rating in two areas, both offensive and defensive.

We'll start with the latter. Here are the top defensive rebounders in 2K21.

Pau Gasol - OVR 98

He seems to have been in the NBA forever, but the Spanish veteran can still pull down those rebounds!

Giannis Antetokoumpo - OVR 97

Giannis was named the 2020 NBA DPOTY due to his insane abilities when running the D. His rebounding is one of, if not the, strongest area of his defensive game.

He's the joint top-rated player in the latest 2K offering and he'll be dominating at both ends of the court.

Andre Drummond - OVR 97

The rebound king!
