Crashes boards in win Tchamwa Tchatchoua notched four points (2-3 FG), nine rebounds and one assist over 17 minutes during Friday's 74-56 victory over UC Santa Barbara.

Impact Tchamwa Tchatchoua continued his role as the Bears' top rebounder since returning to the court in early February. The 6-foot-8 senior has played just 19.1 minutes per game over his 11 appearances, but he's still averaging 5.5 points and 5.1 rebounds. Tchamwa Tchatchoua has actually been a bigger part of Baylor's lineup than starting center Flo Thamba, who has averaged 4.5 points and 3.7 rebounds while only playing 17.8 minutes per game since the return of Tchamwa Tchatchoua.

Plays 25 minutes in loss Tchamwa Tchatchoua chipped in five points (2-3 FG, 1-1 FT), six rebounds and one steal in 25 minutes during Saturday's 87-71 loss to Kansas.

Impact Tchamwa Tchatchoua logged his most extensive playing time since returning from a year-long recovery following a knee injury. The 6-foot-8 junior reserve also played the second-most minutes of any Baylor forward despite coming off the bench again behind starting big men Jalen Bridges (34) and Flo Thamba (12), the latter of whom has logged 15.8 minutes per game over the last five games. Tchamwa Tchatchoua has now averaged 6.0 rebounds and 4.8 boards while playing 21.6 minutes per game over his five appearances this season.

Seven boards in win Tchamwa Tchatchoua racked up zero points (0-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt), seven rebounds and one block over 25 minutes during Saturday's 72-68 victory over TCU.

Impact Tchamwa Tchatchoua logged his most extensive playing time since returning for the last three games after missing the first three months of the season with a knee injury. While the 6-foot-8 senior continued to come off the bench behind starting forwards Jalen Bridges and Flo Thamba, he still logged more rebounds than each of these two Saturday. It's likely these three will account for the bulk of Baylor's rebounding production while playing in a de facto rotation while Baylor continues to use a guard-heavy starting lineup.

Four boards in return Tchamwa Tchatchoua notched eight points (3-4 FG, 2-2 3Pt) and four rebounds across 14 minutes during Saturday's 89-62 win over Texas Tech.

Impact Tchamwa Tchatchoua made his season debut off the bench after recovering from offseason knee surgery undergone in February of 2022. The 6-foot-8 senior played about seven fewer minutes than his season average from the 2021-22 campaign, though his production did appear to have any drop off in his return. Tchamwa Tchatchoua also maintained his efficiency as a scorer from last season when he converted 67.7 percent of his 5.2 field-goal attempts per game. Now that he's healthy again, Tchamwa Tchatchoua appears set to take on a primary reserve role behind starting forwards Jalen Bridges and Flo Thamba.
