15 Days to Purdue Basketball 2021: Zach Edey

We’re nearly two weeks away from Purdue Basketball.

At this time last year, Zach Edey was a 7’4” question mark. A likely redshirt candidate. Someone that in the future when he learned how to play basketball would be somewhere between an exciting project and very tall trinket and gadget for Painter to deploy when Tre Williams was done with his Boiler career.

A lot happened last season for Edey. He played. He played a lot. Way more than I thought. And he was damn good when he did. He averaged 8.7 points a game and 4.4 rebounds.
