“Well, we haven’t rebounded the ball yet this year outside of Hunter,” said Bill Self on Tuesday night. “We have been a very, and we’re going to be and we’re a very poor offensive rebounding team. We're getting well less than 30 percent of our misses back. So tonight we actually did better believe it or not then we have been doing on the offensive glass. Defensively is where it’s a struggle. You know if Kevin doesn't get it and Hunter doesn't get it I don't know who gets it.

“You know KJ historically has been a better offensive rebounder than defensive and Juan’s not getting any cleanups and Elmarko didn't get any,” he added. “So it's not a great rebounding team so to speak and the bench isn't a good rebounding group so we got to become more aggressive. But to be really honest with you KJ, Hunter and Kevin need to get them. I mean just to call it like it is and Hunter’s been getting them but those are the guys that need to get them.”
