Okay, so I’ve been seeing a lot of buzz online about Zach Edey, this giant basketball player from Purdue. And people are obsessed with his height, which naturally got me curious about his parents. Like, were they super tall, too? I decided to do some digging and find out.
First, I hit up Google. You know, the usual. Just typed in “zach edey parents height” and scrolled through the first few results. Most of them were just talking about Zach’s height, which is like 7’4″, crazy, right? But not much about his folks.
So, I decided to dig a little deeper. I started looking at some more specific articles and interviews. I found out his mom’s name is Julia, and his dad’s name is Glen. There were some pictures of them with Zach, and they looked, well, not as extraordinarily tall as him. Still, I needed the specifics.
I kept searching, reading through different websites and forums. Some people were just guessing, but then I stumbled upon a few articles that seemed more reliable. They mentioned that his mom, Julia, used to play basketball too, which is cool. And they had some actual numbers!
Apparently, Julia is 6’3″! That’s pretty tall for a woman, but still a whole foot shorter than her son. I found it so interesting that the difference is so much. And his dad, Glen? I managed to find some articles saying he’s around the same height as Julia, maybe an inch or two taller.
So, there you have it. Zach Edey’s parents are tall, but not giants like him.
- Zach Edey’s Height: 7’4″
- Julia Edey’s (Mom) Height: 6’3″
- Glen Edey’s (Dad) Height: Around 6’3″ or slightly taller
Here’s a quick summary of what I found:
It just goes to show that genetics are wild! You never know what kind of combination you’re going to get. It was a fun little investigation, and now I have some trivia to share with my friends.
