Roster aggregated from NCAA box scores.
The 2026 roster returned 72% of the prior season's scoring — high for the division, so open scoring roles are scarce. Rutgers added 18 new names to the 2026 roster. 19 of 40 players started at least one game — a rough gauge of real playing-time odds. Offense runs through a core: the top three scorers produced 53% of the team's points.
