Juwan Gary (shoulder) is out for Friday’s game versus Purdue and is day-to-day moving forward, Sam McKewon of The Omaha World-Herald reports. Gary suffered his injury in Tuesday’s loss to Illinois. Wilhelm Breidenbach or Denim Dawson are candidates to replace him in the starting lineup. Gary’s next chance to suit up is Wednesday’s matchup with Ohio State.
Purdue Boilermakers DFS Spin
Zach Edey registered 30 points (14-21 FG, 2-2 FT), 13 rebounds, three assists and three blocks across 36 minutes during Sunday’s 76-63 victory over Penn State. Edey turned around a minor scoring slump by his standards with his first game over 20 points from his last four and his first time scoring 30 points in his last seven games. So long as Edey continues to get help from his teammates, he should be able to thrive for one of the best teams in the Big 10 and country.
