You dont see guys on announcement day that often with pretty much the whole team and coach supporting them. Shows how close the boiler family is and Edey was a big part to that successful bond they all have. Continue to work, stay humble, and Kill it at Mephis where we are all now fans of!

Zach has been humble and all class his entire time at Purdue and, apparently, this hasn't gone to his head either. Couldn't happen to a better person!

As a Grizz fan, i hope he keeps that chip on his shoulder. He is joining a hard working group, especially Desmond Bane. And they have a lot of joy for each other. He doesnt need to worry too much about scoring, just boards, passes, screens, and flush some lobs. As a Grizz fan i love the fit, and hope he turns into another headache center for opponents, like Marc Gasol, Valanciunas, Steven Adams. Welcome to Memphis!!

As a long time UK fan and alum, I want to congratulate Zach on his 1st round draft selection , his Purdue coaches, and the entire Purdue team for your success! The Purdue mens basketball “machine” has been the class of the NCAA for last few years. Well done, and well deserved.

One thing that everyone has missed on is Edey's heritage. His mother is Chinese and if properly marketed by the NBA the Chinese Market will explode for Edey, I believe he also speaks some Mandarin so anticipate a push by the NBA/Memphis into that market. Big $$$$$$ for all.

Look how fit he is!! He is in AMAZING SHAPE Must have switched up his diet as well! He will be a much better pro than expected! He was much more mobile than Clingan at the combine, he is slimmer now!!!! I’m hyped for him
@stevelau769424 күн бұрын
He knows it would benefit him in today's NBA to be fitter and thinner so he can optimize his mobility and quickness. Just proof that if Yao Ming played in today's era, would still be good since great players will adapt.

Shaq - 3 second rule Shaq - Hack a shack Shaq - you need to rotate BEFORE HE GETS THE BALL :) I played against Maurice Taylor (Clippers) in a summer run (1998) I’m 6’7 250lbs Maurice was 6’10 275 I had never competed against such a human before!

There will never be another college player, let alone Boilermaker, like him. I hope his success in college translates to the NBA. I was one of the few who commented on his HS youtube workout video saying I liked what I saw back then…his ball screen defense is the only area of concern for me at the next level. He’s just so big to stay with more explosive athletes on the pick & roll.

So the draft is going on. Zach hasn't even been listed in the "Best still available" list on the screen. Then he gets a call when they're still talking about the 8th pick. I want to know if it was a big surprise to get a call that early?
