Zach Edey says rebounding has been a focus this week in practice, and his mind hasn't drifted to potential big man match-ups. One game at a time ahead of the Phil Knight Legacy Tournament.
Painter sounded unhappy with his teams willingness to get the ball into Edey. Much less pleased than immediately after the Marquette game. Says there were about ten times they missed him downlow and there's too many guys playing with their head down. Ability to feed the big man is going to start dictating minutes.
Don't expect Purdue to match West Virginia's length on the wings with bigs.
