How tall is Zach Edey and how much does he weigh?
Purdue’s sensation Zach Edey stands at an impressive 7′4″ and weighs 300 pounds. His size is one of the contributing factors to his ability to block shots, with a wingspan of 7-10.5, just short of NBA Spurs’ Victor Wembanyama’s. Over the last two seasons, Edey has blocked over 70 shots. He is averaging 2.3 blocks per game this season and ranks fourth on Purdue’s all-time blocks list, behind only JaJuan Johnson, A.J. Hammons and Joe Barry Carroll.
What is Zach Edey’s shoe size?
Someone as tall as Edey might struggle to find a shoe that fits at any regular store. Edey said in a 2023 interview that he wears a size 20 in shoes. He currently wears Nike GT (Greater Than) Hustle 2 sneakers to play basketball games.
