As a follow-up to our last article on the top rebounders in the WNBA, I thought I�d take a look at the players in the W who react to missed shots like Superman reacts to kryptonite. I figured that most of the players on the list would be point guards, and I wasn�t surprised. Still, there are probably some names on these lists that will jump out at you.

First let�s check out the �leaders� in lowest Offensive Rebound Percentage. I used the same minimums as last time � 600 minutes played.

Offensive Rebound Percentage � Bottom 20
Player	Team	G	GS	Min	ORPct
Ticha Penicheiro	Sacramento	34	33	927	1.1
Helen Darling	Charlotte	31	11	600	1.1
Dawn Staley	Charlotte	23	23	684	1.4
Doneeka Hodges	Los Angeles	32	11	669	1.6
Kristi Harrower	Minnesota	34	34	832	1.8
Tully Bevilaqua	Indiana	31	31	873	1.8
Allison Feaster	Charlotte	21	21	666	1.8
Tameka Johnson	Washington	33	33	948	1.9
Katie Smith	Minnesota	23	23	766	2.1
Shannon Johnson	San Antonio	34	33	1104	2.2
Becky Hammon	New York	34	34	1165	2.6
Diana Taurasi	Phoenix	33	33	1089	2.6
Janeth Arcain	Houston	34	34	1079	2.7
Sue Bird	Seattle	30	30	1020	2.8
Deanna Nolan	Detroit	33	33	1213	3.1
Sheryl Swoopes	Houston	33	33	1225	3.2
Kelly Miller	Indiana	34	34	1057	3.2
Betty Lennox	Seattle	27	25	763	3.4
Alana Beard	Washington	29	29	978	3.5
Iziane Castro Marques	Seattle	32	31	848	3.5

Lots of point guards on the list, but also plenty of other positional star power � Allison Feaster, Katie Smith, Deanna Nolan, Sheryl Swoopes, Betty Lennox, Alana Beard. But the first thing that caught my eye was that three of the worst seven offensive rebounders last year played for the Sting. A little surprising, I suppose, when you consider that the Sting were the seventh best offensive rebounding team in the league a season ago.

Seattle also �boasts� three players on the list, and they ranked fifth in the W in offensive rebounding last year. Our own Deanna Nolan ranks 15th on the above list, but when you have Cheryl Ford on your team, there aren�t many rebounds to go around for the rest of the team.

For comparison�s sake, here is Cheryl Ford�s line from our top-20 chart.

Player	Team	G	GS	Min	ORPct
Cheryl Ford	Detroit	33	33	932	14.5

So Cheryl grabs more than four times the number of rebounds on the offensive end of the floor than every player on our bottom 20 list and nearly 14 times as many as Ticha Penicheiro.

Defensive Rebound Percentage � Bottom 20
Player	Team	G	GS	Min	DRPct
Allison Feaster	Charlotte	21	21	666	6.0
Sue Bird	Seattle	30	30	1020	6.2
Tan White	Indiana	34	3	693	6.7
Chelsea Newton	Sacramento	34	34	715	6.8
Katie Smith	Minnesota	23	23	766	7.3
Doneeka Hodges	Los Angeles	32	11	669	7.8
Kelly Miller	Indiana	34	34	1057	8.3
Tully Bevilaqua	Indiana	31	31	873	8.5
Shannon Johnson	San Antonio	34	33	1104	8.8
Crystal Robinson	New York	32	31	969	9.4
Tamecka Dixon	Los Angeles	30	23	607	9.5
Anna DeForge	Phoenix	33	33	1131	9.6
Dawn Staley	Charlotte	23	23	684	9.7
Janeth Arcain	Houston	34	34	1079	9.7
Nykesha Sales	Connecticut	34	34	1074	9.8
Marie Ferdinand	San Antonio	31	31	999	9.9
Helen Darling	Charlotte	31	11	600	10.1
Katie Douglas	Connecticut	32	32	998	10.2
Vickie Johnson	New York	34	34	1023	10.2
Becky Hammon	New York	34	34	1165	10.4

On the defensive side of the glass Indiana pulled nearly the same trick as Charlotte did on the offensive end with three players in the bottom eight. The Fever ranked fifth in the league in defensive rebounding percentage last year. The New York Liberty, who ranked ninth in defensive rebound percentage as a team last season, managed to put three players on this list as well. Oh, and the Sting are once again well represented with three players in the bottom 20. As a team Charlotte ranked last in the league in defensive rebound percentage.

Margo Dydek was the number one defensive rebounder in the league last year.

Player	Team	G	GS	Min	DRPct
Margo Dydek	Connecticut	31	30	671	29.9

So she basically grabs three times as many defensive rebounds as the players on the bottom 20 list.

Next up is the list of 20 lowest individual rebound percentages, which is the average of a player�s offensive and defensive rebound percentages.

Player	Team	G	GS	Min	ORPct	DRPct	RPct
Allison Feaster	Charlotte	21	21	666	1.8	6.0	3.9
Sue Bird	Seattle	30	30	1020	2.8	6.2	4.5
Katie Smith	Minnesota	23	23	766	2.1	7.3	4.7
Doneeka Hodges	Los Angeles	32	11	669	1.6	7.8	4.7
Tully Bevilaqua	Indiana	31	31	873	1.8	8.5	5.2
Tan White	Indiana	34	3	693	4.0	6.7	5.4
Shannon Johnson	San Antonio	34	33	1104	2.2	8.8	5.5
Dawn Staley	Charlotte	23	23	684	1.4	9.7	5.5
Helen Darling	Charlotte	31	11	600	1.1	10.1	5.6
Kelly Miller	Indiana	34	34	1057	3.2	8.3	5.8
Janeth Arcain	Houston	34	34	1079	2.7	9.7	6.2
Chelsea Newton	Sacramento	34	34	715	5.7	6.8	6.3
Kristi Harrower	Minnesota	34	34	832	1.8	11.0	6.4
Becky Hammon	New York	34	34	1165	2.6	10.4	6.5
Anna DeForge	Phoenix	33	33	1131	3.6	9.6	6.6
Crystal Robinson	New York	32	31	969	4.5	9.4	6.9
Sheryl Swoopes	Houston	33	33	1225	3.2	10.8	7.0
Iziane Castro Marques	Seattle	32	31	848	3.5	10.4	7.0
Nykesha Sales	Connecticut	34	34	1074	4.3	9.8	7.1
Tamecka Dixon	Los Angeles	30	23	607	5.2	9.5	7.4

So if you�re scoring at home, Allison Feaster (3.9%) grabs half as many rebounds as Vickie Johnson (7.8%) who grabs half as many rebounds as Kamila Vodichkova (15.6%) who is still more than a Sue Bird away from Cheryl Ford (21.7%).
