He did 4 years.
Luka Garza is only like 6ā10 though. Thatās not that big for an NBA player. So itās easy to expose an unathletic big man at that size. Edey wonāt be a star, but he has a unique trait that will keep him on an NBA roster, even if itās closer to the end of the bench than the starting lineup. He should be able to at least protect the rim and score inside.
Also, Luka got drafted.

Edey is as high as mid-2nd round in mocks.
Does being from Canada impact Edeyās NIL prospects? I donāt know enough about all of this stuff.
generally, being from outside the US means you canāt do NIL except in very specific situations. i havenāt heard anything about purdue pursuing those sorts of things for edey, but maybe i just donāt hear these things
Could he do commercials for GMC and get paid in his Toronto bank? It seems like you canāt have a job and get paid in America (or repatriate earnings into America?), but you can have a job and get paid overseas. At least that is how I interpreted the Kentucky Tschibwe (sp?) fundraiser in the Bahamas.
hahaha, yeah, i was reading about that tshiebwe stuff in the bahamas too. no idea!

An NEC C would get eaten alive in the B1G I would imagine. Seems like a guy that should end up at a MM, Shrews is clearly just mailing it in

I donāt think heās mobile enough to protect the rim in the NBA. They will pick on him in PnR and isolate the star players who can get by him with ease. NCAA rules helped hide Edey from getting exposed. With 3 second rule and NBA spacing, I donāt see any way that Edey is playable in the next level defensively.
Iām aware that Luka got drafted but heās struggling to hold onto the roster spot because heās a AAAA type of player. Too good for the G-League but not good enough to catch onto the NBA roster.

Not sure anyone is saying that Edey will be good in the NBA, just that heāll probably be a 2nd Rd pick.

He had really good games offensively against high major competition. Iām sure heās a zero defensively though.

I think he might be a more mobile Boban. Iām not sure he has the shooting touch of Boban but thatās the kind of player I see. A 3rd big who might be good in spots.

Or put on 50 lbs of muscle and go the Valunciunas route.

So do UCLA and USC join the B1G next season or the 24-25 season?

Not exactly ideal but wouldnāt this have less of an effect on us than him getting Penn State up and running?
