The second-ranked Purdue men's basketball team has its sights on a national title and the Boilermakers play a key Big Ten matchup against in-state rival Indiana on Saturday, Feb. 10
Purdue center Zach Edey, the reigning Naismith College Player of the Year, was named the Big Ten Player of the Week for the fourth time this season. He now has 10 Big Ten Player of the Week honors in his career, tying Ohio State's Evan Turner for the most in league history.
Edey led the Boilermakers to a pair of victories over Northwestern (105-96) and No. 6 Wisconsin (75-69) last week. He averaged 24 points, 14 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 2 blocks while shooting 18-of-27 (.667) from the field.
Edey had 30 points, 15 rebounds and three assists in the win over Northwestern, his sixth career 30-15 game — the most for a high-major player in the last 15 years. He set a school record in the win over Wildcats, by scoring in double-figures in his 73rd straight game.
He then finished with 18 points, 13 rebounds, three blocks and two assists in the win over Wisconsin.
Just three players in NCAA history (2002-03 – Chris Kaman, Central Michigan; 1997-98 – Michael Olowokandi, Pacific; 1993-94 – Carlos Rogers, Tennessee State) have ever finished in the top 15 in all four categories.
Indiana picked up a huge 76-73 victory over Ohio State on Tuesday night. Malik Reneau had 26 points on 8-of-15 shooting and Trey Galloway scored 25 to lead the Hoosiers, who rallied from an 18-point deficit.
The Hoosiers shot 33% (9 of 27) in the opening half and 55% (16 of 29) after the break.
Indiana will have to find a way to contain Edey, who ranks third nationally in scoring (23.1), fourth in rebounds (11.7), 14th in field goal percentage (.631) and 14th in blocked shots per game (2.3).
