Zach Edey has officially thrown his hat into the ring for the 2024 NBA draft.

“I felt like it was time,” Edey said. “I showed that I’m a physical presence on offense this season. I also showed I can play defense. I can guard in space, even defend guards.”

Edey has etched his name in college basketball history as one of its most decorated players, becoming the first since Bill Walton in 1973 to earn unanimous National Player of the Year honors.

With an impressive average of 24.9 points per game, he topped the nation in scoring and secured third place in rebounding with 12.2 boards per game.
