Jarrett Allen has been an absolute machine on the glass for the Brooklyn Nets all season. He entered Saturday’s game averaging 10.5 boards per game, placing him at No. 11 in rebounds per game in the NBA, seventh overall in the Eastern Conference.
In each of the nine games prior to Saturday’s matchup with the Toronto Raptors, Allen grabbed 10 or more rebounds — a career-best streak for 10-plus-rebound games.
Allen extended the streak to 10 games before the start of the fourth quarter on Saturday. The Fro’s streak is the longest streak by a Net since Reggie Evans’ streak in the 2012-13 season. The former Nets power forward logged 10-plus rebounds in 18 consecutive games that season.
Last season, Allen averaged 8.4 rebounds per game. In his rookie season, he grabbed 5.4 a night.
