Al Jefferson only needs three defensive rebounds tonight against the Golden State Warriors to move past former Antony Mason for the 61st spot all-time in defensive rebounds.
With a current average of 3.2 defensive rebounds per game, it is likely that Jefferson will pass Mason during Monday night’s contest at Bakers Life Fieldhouse against the Warriors.
Jefferson passed former Pacers power forward Sam Perkins’ spot on the leaderboard by grabbing five defensive rebounds in the Pacers’ November 5 win against the Chicago Bulls earlier in the month.
Those aren’t the only milestones Jefferson is looking at this season.
