Note: All stats on this leaderboard are shown at the conclusion of the game, so when a player shows up on this leaderboard with more than 10,000 rebounds, the value you are seeing is their total stats at the end of the game in which they crossed the 10,000 rebounds threshold. This is necessary because many older NBA games only have the full-game boxscore stats, there is no play-by-play data.
