## Resource

Purdue’s basketball machine, led by Matt Painter, is heating up the recruiting trail with the rise of five-star center Erick Dampier Jr.—son of NBA legend Erick Dampier, 6’9”, 230 lbs, and ranked No. 2 center and No. 4 overall in his class. Already averaging 15 points and 13 rebounds as a sophomore while shooting 70% from the field, Dampier Jr. is drawn to Purdue’s big-man-friendly system and strong rapport with the coaching staff. With offers from Mississippi State and others, the Boilermakers are making serious noise as a top contender for this elite prospect’s commitment.
