Purdue center Zach Edey was selected with the No. 9 pick by the Memphis Grizzlies in the 2024 NBA Draft. The 7-foot-4 center set new program records at Purdue in points and rebounds and was a two-time National Player of the Year.
On Wednesday night, the 7-foot-4 center was selected by the Memphis Grizzlies with the No. 9 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft. He becomes the 50th player in program history to be selected.
An under-recruited prospect out of high school, Edey transformed from a role player into one of the most dominant athletes ever in college basketball. As a senior in the 2023-24 season, he averaged 25.2 points, 12.2 rebounds, 2.2 blocks and 2.0 assists per game. During the season, Purdue coach Matt Painter explained how Edey transformed into a first-round pick in the NBA Draft.
"He does a lot of little things to help a team win. That's why I think they've got a place there for him. He can rebound, he can pass, he can score with his back to the basket. I think he's got a spot."
