After two years of basically the same basketball team Purdue is going to be very different in 2022-23. Gone are lottery pick Jaden Ivey and NBA Draft hopeful Trevion Williams. Guard Sasha Stefanovic elected to not use his COVID year of extra eligibility. Eric Hunter Jr. did elect to use his, but it will be at Butler. Isaiah Thompson was set to be the team’s lone senior, but he is off to Florida Gulf Coast. That leaves a ton of minutes available in the backcourt, and Coach Painter has been actively recruiting a transfer guard for some time. There was playing time to sell, especially with two freshmen guards coming in that will need time to adapt.
