2. Zach Edey, C, Purdue
The hefty favorite to win the Final Four's Most Outstanding Player may be in the two slot as part of my Canadian bias.
- Zach Edey +195
- Tristen Newton +340
- Donovan Clingan +340
- Cam Spencer +500
- Stephon Castle +2000
But Zach Edey continues to prove that doubters are wrong with every given game.

After picking up his back-to-back CBB Player of the Year on Friday, Edey etched his name into the college hoops record book. The Toronto, Canada native became the first player to win two straight since Ralph Sampson in 1983.
Critics of Edey once labeled him two-slow, too much of a defensive liability on the perimeter, and a player that would struggle to fit into this run-and-gun, three-point barrage NBA era.
A year after his second-round draft status was being debated, Edey is a lock to go inside the top 15.
Don't forget this 7'3", 300-pound man-child only started hooping seven years ago.
