TORONTO — Toronto's Zach Edey is one of the most hotly anticipated NBA prospects to come out of Canada in several years. But if he ends up on his hometown Raptors or another team remains to be seen.

Edey averaged 25.2 points, 12.2 rebounds, 2.2 blocks and two assists over 39 games for the Purdue Boilermakers in the 2023-24 season. His NCAA career average was 18.2 points, 9.6 rebounds, 1.7 blocks, and 1.3 assists over four season with Purdue, but those numbers are skewed lower as he started only twice in his freshman year and played half as many minutes per game that season.

"I don't think I'm even close to my ceiling," said Edey."I'm still doing things in practice that I've never done, still trying to add things to my game that I've never done before. "I think that's a conversation for way more than just Edey too," Tolzman said on Tuesday."All these guys are coming from almost like a different sport. College basketball, international pro basketball, like it's not the NBA with the way that they play.
