"Purdue's Zach Edey Poised for Back-to-Back National Player of the Year Honors"
Purdue's star player Zach Edey had his jersey retired while still playing college basketball, following an impressive win over Wisconsin. With a national-best record and a strong performance, Purdue remains at the top of the CBS Sports Top 25 And 1 daily college basketball rankings. Edey's outstanding performance in the regular-season finale solidifies his position as the front-runner for the National Player of the Year award, with a career-high average in points, rebounds, and blocks. He is on the verge of becoming the first back-to-back Wooden Award winner since 1983.
