Zach Edey measurements: Height, wingspan, hand size, foot size for Purdue star

If you tune into the Purdue Boilermakers men’s basketball team, you’ll quickly notice that center Zach Edey towers over each of his opponents.

Edey, the two-time Sporting News College Basketball Player of the Year, uses his height to his advantage, dominating almost everyone while showing off the numerous facets of his all-around game. As a senior, he’s doing so to the tune of 24.5 points and 12.1 rebounds per game.

What’s beyond the numbers? More numbers, apparently. Edey boasts eye-popping measurements that add some context to why he’s able to be so dominant against each opponent that comes his way.

The Sporting News breaks down a few of Edey’s measurements below.
