I love that we are finally at the time of year where we are counting down to Purdue basketball. If you’re like me, it can’t come soon enough. 24 days until they hit the court which means today we spotlight Sam King in our countdown.
King is a 6’ 8” forward out of Columbus, Indiana in his sophomore year with the Boilers. In high-school he averaged 15.6 points and shot 81% from the charity stripe. He had offers from some smaller D111 schools but decided to walk-on at Purdue.
Last season he saw playing time in 4 games grabbing one rebound in 7 minutes of play and that is what we can probably expect from him this year.
