VJ Edgecombe Shows Versatility in Baylor's Win Over Sam Houston

Freshman sensation VJ Edgecombe had a fantastic performance against Sam Houston State on November 12, scoring 13 points and recording 10 rebounds, seven assists, and three steals. The former five-star recruit from Long Island Lutheran has demonstrated his ability to attack the rim throughout the game, showing off an elite handle and a quick first step that has him in top-five talks in the 2025 NBA Draft. A highly efficient scorer, Edgecombe went 6-of-9 from the field and 1-of-3 from deep in the victory, but what really stood out was his ability on the glass at 6-foot-4; he recorded 10 boards, five of which were on the offensive end. Omier went 8-of-11 from the field, many of which were on feeds from the freshman star.
