Jamal Gibson continues to cement his place in HBCU basketball history, securing his 43rd consecutive double-double in Southern University at New Orleans’ (SUNO) 91-82 win over Wilberforce University. Gibson’s remarkable performance—26 points and 20 rebounds—showcased his consistency as a dominant force in the HBCU Athletic Conference (HBCUAC).
Gibson burst onto the scene last season as a 6-8, 26-year-old freshman, immediately establishing himself as one of the most dominant players in NAIA HBCU basketball. He averaged an astonishing 21.5 points and 15.8 rebounds per game, earning widespread recognition and setting the stage for his historic run of double-doubles.
This season, Gibson has built on that incredible debut, averaging 20.2 points and 15.1 rebounds per game. His ability to deliver on both ends of the court has propelled the Knights to a five-game winning streak in conference play. Gibson’s rebounding totals, including a season-high 27 boards against Stillman, highlight his relentless pursuit of the ball, while his efficient scoring—including 70.6% shooting in Friday’s game—keeps defenses on their heels.
