Notes
 
• After missing most of the 2020-2021 season, graduate student forward Chuba Ohams has wasted little time displaying that he was back, recording a double-double in four of the first five games.
 
• Ohams started with 13 points and a career-high 15 rebounds in the season-opening win over Columbia and then bettered his career-high with 18 rebounds to go with 17 points at Manhattan. He followed that with 12 points and 12 boards vs. St. Thomas and ten points and 12 boards against UMES.
 
• Ohams leads the Atlantic 10 and is fifth in the NCAA in rebounding (12.6 rpg).
 
• Graduate student guard Darius Quisenberry is third in the Atlantic 10 in scoring, averaging 18.2 ppg while junior guard Antonio Daye, Jr. is sixth in the conference in scoring at 17.2 ppg.
 
• The Fordham defense held Akron, who entered the game averaging 89.0 ppg, to just 43 points in the win on Monday night.
 
• The Rams are looking to win their first in-season tournament since 1987.
 
• Fordham head coach Kyle Neptune became the first Fordham head men's basketball coach to win in his debut since 1986.
