<p>The redshirt sophomore had a great debut last season.</p> <p id="Ul7Nis">Purdue basketball is BACK tonight! We still have one more player to preview though, as he wears number 0. </p>
<p id="dYeU9X"><strong>Mason Gillis - So. (RS)</strong></p>
<p id="bBsWIS"><strong>New Castle, IN (New Castle HS)</strong></p>
<p id="Ozq4V9"><strong>6’6”, 230 pounds</strong></p>
<p id="XnCrbQ"><strong>Forward</strong></p>
<p id="VmCcxT"><strong>2021-22 Projection: possible starter</strong></p>
<p id="uF24BN">I wasn’t quite sure what to think of Mason last year. He had lost his senior season of high school to a knee injury and then redshirted in 2019-20. I think coach painter was thinking he could get an extra year from him because of Evan Boudreaux at the same position. </p>
<p id="LrLrjJ">Gillis made the most of it though. He ended up starting 23 of the 28 games and averaging 5.2 points and 4.1 rebounds. He was the consummate glue guy. He was solid at the free throw line. He did the “run, rebound, and defend” that Painter asks of his role guys. He showed a bit of a three-point shot (19 of 54) and did a little of everything. I loved the rapport he had with Trevion Williams, as he knew exactly when to cut to the basket for a nice pass from Tre. </p>
<p id="n3NEMz">One of the signature plays of the year for him was in the <a href="https://www.theonlycolors.com">Michigan State</a> game up in East Lansing. He didn’t score a point, but after Trevion Williams hit what would be the game-winner Mason parked himself in the middle of the defense as the Spartans desperately pushed the ball up floor. He disrupted the entire flow of the play and mat a tough shot almost impossible just with his defense. As big as Tre’s shot was, Mason’s defense was at least as huge. </p>
<p id="MiAXIM">Mason, unfortunately, enters the season under a cloud. After picking up an OWI over the summer he will be sitting the first four games of the year against Bellarmine, Indiana State, Wright State, and North Carolina. the first three are games Purdue should win handily, but I think sitting him he UNC game was a definite message. That’s the, “this is a tough game, and we are going to prove we can win without you if you don’t get it together,” message. </p>
<p id="Z2lqJr">He also has to now fend off Caleb Furst and Trey Kaufman-Renn for minutes when he comes back. Just because he started last year doesn’t guarantee he will once he returns. Coach Painter is very clear he will have to earn his role. At minimum, he is another guy that provides experienced depth. At best, he earns his role back because he is the best player at that spot, fending off a couple of very good players in their own right. </p>
<p id="YijkxY">It’s a good spot to be in. </p>

<p>It’a another legacy.</p> <p id="rr5Vw0">This is our third freshman in four days on the countdown, but his profile is very similar to the previous two. He is another two-time state champion that was denied a potential three-peat due to COVID. He is also another legacy. </p>
<p id="SbvoAI"><strong>Brian Waddell - Fr.</strong></p>
<p id="aTZFFJ"><strong>Carmel, IN (Carmel HS)</strong></p>
<p id="V0YzTL"><strong>6’7”, 185 pounds</strong></p>
<p id="1NQ2yI"><strong>Forward</strong></p>
<p id="Gd6q0G"><strong>2021-22 Projection: redshirting</strong></p>
<p id="oxuCxH">First of all, the condition that Waddell knew when he was offered a scholarship was that he would redshirt this season. We won’t see the fruits of his labor for another year, but he is at Purdue, scholarship in hand, because of a tremendous senior season at Carmel. The Greyhounds went 26-2 and won their fifth state championship in school history and fourth since since 2012. He was also a key player on their 2019 championship team, so he joins Caleb Furst and Trey Kaufman-Renn as players whose teams “repeated” in 2019 and 2021. since Carmel is always good and they had won a sectional before COVID cancelled the rest of the 2020 tournament, he also could have three-peated. In the two state championship years Carmel went 52-3, with he three losses coming by a combined four points. </p>
<p id="DgCrfE">Waddell will be very familiar to Purdue fans because his dad Matt, a Tipton HS grad, was a starting point guard in the mid-90s under Gene Keady. His dad helped Purdue win a pair of B1G titles, scored more than 1,100 points in his career, and was a teammate of some guy named Matt Painter. </p>

<figcaption>Just like dad.</figcaption>
</figure>
<p id="RjCfqv">Brian is here in his own right though. He was an Indiana All-Star last season and shot better than 60% from the field. He averaged 15.8 points and 6.4 rebounds, and even took out undefeated and No. 1 ranked Fletcher Loyer in the regional. He had a 20 and 10 in the state tile win over Lawrence North. </p>
<p id="6itYAm">While he is redshirting this year, he is a player coach Painter wills dash and develop. he is a true “Purdue guy” that has fully bought into the program just like his dad, and will likely pay huge dividends down the road. </p>

<p>Hunter Jr. looks to come into the season healthy and thrive. </p> <p id="cRA3bA">Eric Hunter Jr. had a rough junior season. He had a lower body injury just before the season that carried in through the season, he wasn’t technically injured through the season, but it was clear he never got a chance to fully recover. By the end of the season, it looked like he didn’t have his legs underneath him. His efficiency stats all took hits, stepping back dramatically from the season before.</p>
<p id="Gu79Xi"></p>
<p id="14hG17">He shot 27% from three after being north of 35% the season prior. Hunter’s counting stats don’t look terrible: 8.2 points, 2.8 assists, and 2.2 rebounds a game, but he didn’t look like a player that took the major step in play making and scoring that many expected. </p>
<p id="WND0BF"></p>
<p id="WuWoDQ">But what Hunter Jr. did prove and show, despite the lower leg issues, was that he is an elite defensive guard. He’s a smart defender, quick, with his head constantly on a tilt, capable of both pressing into a defender up top and sticking with him through screens. </p>
<p id="jhIevq"></p>
<p id="mFEerI">His offense has always been subtle. Capable of being a secondary or third shot maker, flashing some nifty mid-range game, but struggling to knock down the deep ball. His footwork is polished, but he struggles to finish and find space in crowded spaces and against elite defenders. </p>
<p id="weQcST"></p>
<p id="8V4iQd">But he plays smart. Makes the next pass quickly, and has at times been an effective catch and shoot shooter. He’s a perfect foil for a ball dominant scoring guard like Jaden Ivey. His leadership has been consistent and he’s a calming presence, often times found on the best +/- lineups in a game. </p>
<p id="MdGwHD"></p>
<p id="T1XG2f">With better health, a full off season, look for him to extend his offensive game and continue his dominance on defense. He should be a near lock for All Big-Ten Defensive team, carrying the moniker of great perimeter defenders previous at Purdue.</p>
<p id="n9ScXi"></p>
<p id="KkHj8z">With a little bit of added efficiency on offense, he’ll become one of the quietest stars and best unknowns in college football. Look for him to make an All-Glue team if Purdue has the success they should. </p>

<p>Welcome the freshman from Ft. Wayne.</p> <p id="Xx34K8">(This meant to go up Saturday, but we were late). </p>
<p id="pNCcDM">Purdue has done well with Mr. Basketball. it took a while to get one after Glenn Robinson, but Caleb Swanigan had a successful Purdue career as the top player in Indiana. Now we get another Mr. Basketball from the same town. </p>
<p id="FZ37NN"><strong>Caleb Furst - Fr.</strong></p>
<p id="AgPTgD"><strong>Ft. Wayne, IN (Blackhawk Christian HS)</strong></p>
<p id="Xq35pL"><strong>6’10”, 230 pounds</strong></p>
<p id="JVCBiY"><strong>Forward</strong></p>
<p id="KbMsWa"><strong>2021-22 Projection: Potential Starter</strong></p>
<p id="VX4TZR">Any time you can have a player of the caliber of Furst and not <em>need</em> him to play a lot as a freshman is a tremendous luxury. Furst could probably start at center on a lot of college basketball teams. For Purdue, we get to see how he can do at the four and he can play center to mess with lineups. It’s wonderful.</p>
<p id="0slEAb">Furst, like Trey Kaufman-Renn, was a two-time state champion and could have had a third if not for the 2020 cancellation. His team went 105-11 in his four years in high school, winning the Class A title in 2019 and the 2A title in 2021 when they had to play up a level. They lost in the semi-state when Furst was a freshman, and they were favored to win in 2020 before COVID hit. He didn’t just dominate smaller schools, either. Blackhawk went around the state to play top competition. Just last year alone his team beat Kaufman-Renn at Silver Creek 94-84 in double OT. He also lost to Fletcher Loyer and top rated Homestead, but got a lot of other really good 4A wins with a team that averaged 82 ppg. His team was good enough to make a serious run in the old one-class Indiana tournament if we still had it. </p>
<p id="thQM83">Furst finished with 2,087 career points, then went and won a gold medal with Jaden Ivey and Team USA this summer at the U-19 World Cup. He is an extremely talented big that can shoot from outside, and he might be Purdue’s <em>third </em>best center behind Zach Edey and Trevion Williams. He will likely see a lot of minutes at the four this season, but can play the five in a pinch. he also has more of an outside shot than Tre or Edey. </p>
<p id="sVvufc">It is a tremendous luxury to have him. </p>

<p>The freshman was plucked right out of IU’s back yard. Thanks, Archie!</p> <p id="pVFp0i">It is always exciting to get a very talented, highly rated freshman. It is something else to steal him from the backyard of your rival.</p>
<p id="dTQLrn"><strong>Trey Kaufman-Renn</strong></p>
<p id="mLGATM"><strong>Sellersburg, IN (Silver Creek HS)</strong></p>
<p id="L8YOKe"><strong>6’9”, 225 pounds</strong></p>
<p id="oWTceU"><strong>Forward</strong></p>
<p id="t0o76g"><strong>2021-22 Projection: Contributor</strong></p>
<p id="xUIT6t">It is not every day that Purdue walks into the suburbs of Louisville and walks out with a top 50 national recruit. That is normally territory for Indiana and Louisville to battle, but I will give credit to coach Painter: he scored a major coup by walking into the back yards of both teams and picking up Trey. In the final recruiting rankings he was 41<sup>st</sup> according to Rivals and 43<sup>rd</sup> according to 247. He joins E’Twaun Moore, JaJuan Johnson, and Caleb Swanigan as the only top 50 recruits Painter has managed to land (classmate Caleb Furst finished 54<sup>th</sup>according to Rivals and 64<sup>th</sup> according to 247). </p>
<p id="Sb1T1t">Like his classmate, he is a two-time state champion. Silver Creek won the 2019 and 2021 Class 3A state titles. He had a very good shot at a third had the remainder of the 2020 tournament not been cancelled, as they were 25-2 and ranked No. 1 heading into he regional. He finished as his school’s career scoring leader at 1,832 points, and likely would have cracked 2,000 if not for the tournament cancellation and a minor injury that cost him part of his senior season. Last year he averaged 24.5 points, 11.8 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.9 blocks per game.</p>
<p id="eHfy9N">His role this year will be interesting. Can he give Purdue minutes at the three as a physically dominant player there? Furst seems to have passed him ever so slightly because of his experience at the U-19 World Cup, but Kaufman-Renn was still good enough to be invited to the camp before missing the event due to a wrist injury.</p>
<p id="s32xIa">The kid is a winner. His Silver Creek teams went 95-15 in his four years there. He even split a pair of head-to-head games with Furst. He has tremendous familiarity with Furst, which only helps Purdue in the long run. He will be a contributor for a long time, and we saw a little bit of it last night. He finished with 3 points, 2 rebounds, and an assist in 16 minutes, hitting his only three-point attempt. </p>

<p>The sophomore guard looks to build on a strong shooting season.</p> <p id="nk8ssW">Brandon Newman was an early season starter and excelled with the opportunity.</p>
<p id="17PDuZ"></p>
<p id="2clz50">He finished the season averaging 8 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 1.3 assists a game, but over the last five games of the season he failed to play 20 minutes, his jump shot left him, and at times he looked like the move to the bench after Stefanovic got healthy from COVID knocked Newman out of rhythm.</p>
<p id="q1L4a4"></p>
<p id="MkESEC">Painter’s backcourt is no less crowded this year. Jaden Ivey is all but guaranteed a starting spot. It’d be shocking to see Eric Hunter Jr. not take back over his lead ball handling and defending duty for a coach who values both above anything from a guard. </p>
<p id="ob5MdG"></p>
<p id="GxlrJQ">So that third spot almost certainly comes down to two shooters - Sasha Stefanovic and Brandon Newman. Stefanovic has been doing this for a lot longer than Newman. He lead Purdue in shooting from three again despite a stretch in the middle of the season where the Crown Point native missed games and struggled with coming back from COVID.</p>
<p id="rIikzm"></p>
<p id="yx6yMq">One would think this starting job is Stefanovic’s to lose.</p>
<p id="XaXwO4"></p>
<p id="EVoEpQ">But Brandon Newman had an efficient shooting season on his own, 38% from three on 103 attempts, and is possibly Painter’s best two-way wing option. Newman is a long, athletic 6’5” guard/wing that jumped out of the gate in his first collegiate action and looked at times like the secondary shot maker Painter needs for this squad. </p>
<p id="0ZNbWA"></p>
<p id="3e8pna">His ability to create space on and off the ball, attack on straight line drives, and pull up and back in the mid-range is something Stefanovic doesn’t offer. </p>
<p id="vHOyhX"></p>
<p id="ZkGLQJ">But Newman turned the ball over on over 21% of his finished possessions and offered almost nothing on the playmaking for other fronts. These will be two avenues he will need to expand and sharpen his game. He’s not a fluid ball handler. He clearly has a set of trick dribbles and set ups that make his footwork look immaculate at times, but when you get him off those, his shot can get flat and inconsistent. </p>
<p id="cO2mYW"></p>
<p id="ZKwYpU">He came out better than expected, playing over 30 minutes a night routinely, and helped hold the team together while Ivey and Sasha struggled with their injuries, but once Newman stepped to the bench, he was unable to bring the same consistency and energy night to night. He didn’t get better as the season went on. </p>
<p id="p6JsvW"></p>
<p id="2UFF2U">But North Texas’s upset had to loom large over Coach Painter and the Boilermakers. Particularly how once again in March, Stefanovic’s defensive limitations being picked on again and again. </p>
<p id="ovdUwU"></p>
<p id="eeV05m">Newman doesn’t have those limitations. He’s an above average athlete, with good length, who at times really took to the moniker of attacking on the defensive end. He’s the wild card for Painter - useful no matter what, but if he turns into a little more of a play maker, a little better of a shot maker, more consistent on both ends of the floor, and turns it up just a notch, he’s not just a nice piece, but a star. </p>
<p id="m1f9dO"></p>
<p id="ebtJzF">There’s a lot of points and players in the season that can alter the course of a season, but for Purdue, Newman’s ascendance could be the tipping point for a Boilermaker squad that has the chance to not be stopped by anyone.</p>

<p>The junior guard from Zionsville has been a steady hand for two years. </p> <p id="Ei2wvM">I have long been a fan and defender of Isaiah Thompson. I saw him for four years at Zionsville and he is a dedicated Purdue guy. He is never going to be THE GUY at Purdue like a Jaden Ivey or a Trevion Williams, but he can still be a valuable contributor this year. He is the type of Purdue “glue guy” guard that is always an asset to have. </p>
<p id="PyeRpV"><strong>Isaiah Thompson – Jr. </strong></p>
<p id="gxyThN"><strong>Zionsville, IN (Zionsville HS)</strong></p>
<p id="faSs0h"><strong>6’1”, 160 pounds</strong></p>
<p id="4Wv1Qa"><strong>Guard</strong></p>
<p id="2FVv44"><strong>2021-22 Projection: Contributor</strong></p>
<p id="KTjjAe">Isaiah came in with Mason Gillis and Brandon Newman, but was the only one that played immediately as a true freshman. It was expected that he would be a player like his big brother PJ, but he is a different type of player. Instead of being a distributor and definite point guard he is more of a combo guard. I saw him play several HS games where he went off Carsen Edwards-style, but that is much harder for him to do at this level. </p>
<p id="czmPq0">He has since become a guy who can be a spot starter and a solid reserve for 10-15 minutes per game. He can handle the ball if needed, and he has actually been a sneaky good shooter from long range. He went from 36% from three to 39.7% last year, but his overall scoring dropped from 5.6 per game to 4.2. He did have a 2:1 assist to turnover ratio too. </p>
<p id="F2xln4">Isaiah has had some big games, and that shows where he has value. He had 14 in the 2019-20 win over Wisconsin in Mackey and a career high 17 (with five threes) in the blowout of Chicago State. He matched that career high at <a href="https://www.onthebanks.com">Rutgers</a> last year and went 7 of 8 from the field. </p>
<p id="kdYj0g">This year I envision Isaiah in much of the same role. He is an experienced guy that has been through the battles. He’ll have a lot of games where he plays 13-15 minutes and takes one shot, but he can also have the occasional game where he gets hot and hits 3-4 threes. Given the attention Purdue’s centers will get, the open looks will be there. Finally, he can be a “closer” like his brother, where he comes in while Purdue has a lead in the last minute and needs to hit free throws. If he can knock them down, he’ll play a lot. He just needs to play smart and take advantage of the chances given him. </p>

<p>The fourth senior!</p> <p id="SSEIwR">Yes, Purdue has a fourth senior this year in addition to Eric Hunter Jr., Trevion Williams, and Sasha Stefanovic. He might even be on scholarship, too. </p>
<p id="12ggxp"><strong>Jared Wulbrun - Sr. </strong></p>
<p id="EPCBZh"><strong>Stanford, CA (Palo Alto HS)</strong></p>

<p id="IH5iMz"><strong>Guard</strong></p>
<p id="pNsyfk"><strong>2021-22 Projection: Deep reserve</strong></p>
<p id="NA9oJU">Purdue enters this season with just 12 scholarship players, and that includes the redshirting Brian Waddell. That means there is an extra pone out there, and coach Painter has often rewarded his longest tenured walk-on with a scholarship if one is available. </p>
<p id="fO6TeU">WUlbrun is a senior that played as a freshman at Cal Lutheran before transferring to Purdue. His dad is a new Division I head coach, as he was hired at the University of Denver this year. He is also a friend of coach painter, which led to Wulbrun’s place on the roster. </p>
<p id="1aRSpy">So far at Purdue he has seen action in 11 games: Nine in 2019-20 and two last year. He hit a three in the 2019-20 win over Jacksonville State and hit another last year against Oakland for the only points of his career. </p>
<p id="Un3yR0">Like most walk-ons, he is a human victory cigar appearing at the end of some blowouts, but he will definitely bring leadership in practice. </p>
