Him on the court with Lopez seems like would kill us on the boards.

At The Hive had an end of season write up on Lopez and despite his poor individual rebounding numbers the team rebounded better and at a pretty good rate with him in the game. Basically Vasquez and Aminu benefited from Lopez boxing out well but not being athletic enough to box out and get the rebound. He won't be as good as Aminu, but I'd expect his rebounding to benefit as well.
