I tried to look into this last year in there seemed to be a dearth of data of recent vintage on the college side. I know that 20 years ago team’s rebounded their own 3s at a significantly lower rate. But times have changed and so has the geography of the court, so who knows. Teams have gotten better at forcing rotation and closeouts, which takes a def rebounder out of position, so maybe there is less of a trade off now (or none at all). I’m just surprised at the limited data (at the possession level).
