The addition of Akwasi Yeboah for Rutgers basketball has been one of, if not, the most underrated storylines of the season for the program. The grad transfer from Stony Brook, who Rutgers coach Steve Pikiell recruited there and then landed him this past summer a second time, has made a major impact on a team that sits at 8-3 and its highest KenPom ranking in years at 57th.
Yeboah came off the bench the first nine games of the season, before assuming a starting role the past two contests, both wins. His production overall has been impressive.
