Sam King is a senior forward who provides scoring punch off the bench, averaging 0.3 points in 2.0 minutes per game. He takes care of the ball with just 0.2 turnovers per game.
Sam King's journey to Purdue is one of the more unlikely stories on the roster. The 6-9 forward from Columbus, Indiana, averaged 15.6 points and 6.2 rebounds as a senior at Columbus North High School, but initially believed his playing days were over and applied to Indiana University. A connection through one of Matt Painter's friends in Columbus opened the door for a walk-on opportunity at Purdue. King has spent his career as a valuable practice player, serving as a sparring partner for Zach Edey and later Trey Kaufman-Renn, playing a vital behind-the-scenes role for the program.
