11. Love’s 14 Rebounds on June 19, 2016
Love loves his rebounds and there was no way not to include the last game of the 2016 NBA Finals on his list of most rebounds. This game featured so many lead changes that we lost count. It also had a stalemate in the last four minutes. It seemed as though no one could buy a basket until Kyrie Irving‘s three with less than a minute left in the game.
While Love struggled offensively with just nine points on 3-of-9 from the field and 0-of-3 from three, he did nab 14 rebounds (four offensive, 10 defensive). Those rebounds were crucial to the game, as they gave the Cavs four extra possessions and took away 10 for the Warriors. So crucial, in fact, that Love came away with a plus/minus of plus-19 and the Cavs came away as NBA Champions.
