With the completion of the 2023 NBA Draft and with Zach Edey having pulled his name out of consideration a few weeks ago, it is now time to look forward into the future about which Boilermakers stand the best chance to hear their names called on draft night. Purdue has a great history of draft picks in the NBA with nine total first round draft picks and two number one overall picks in Joe Barry Carroll (1980) and Glenn Robinson (1994). Those two number one overall picks places Purdue as just one of sixteen different schools to have had multiple number one overall picks with the likes of Duke, Kentucky, Georgetown, Houston, North Carolina, UCLA, Kansas, and Indiana (among others).
