The feeling of being on the outside looking in has long tugged at him. “Even just being Chinese in basketball. Being a tall Chinese person,” he says. “You almost feel like you versus the world a little bit.”He is proud to be Chinese Canadian. He’s not playing just for himself, but for the kids of Asian descent watching him. “You can probably count on your fingers how many Asian people there are in our conference, so that’s something I take a lot of pride in,” he says. “I’m proud that I can represent our culture.”Especially, he says, as violence against Asian Americans rises. He says he’s constantly receiving racist Instagram direct messages. “When we lost to Maryland [in February], someone called me a ‘stupid chink’ in my DMs,” he says. “There’s a lot of insensitive stuff … all the coronavirus jokes.”He tries to let it roll off him, reminding himself that there are many more people that support him. His parents, Julia and Glen; his teammates; his coaches; the Purdue community; and the kids that look up to him, many of whom were present at a youth basketball camp he held with Jeremy Lin in Toronto in 2022. Edey gave a speech: “I talked about what it’s like to be playing basketball as a Chinese person,” he says, “sometimes feeling like an outsider.” He would use that to his advantage as he transformed himself at Purdue, turning into very much a fan favorite. Edey, now known as “Big Maple” around West Lafayette, is almost a cult hero on campus. He signs autographs for hours after games. His name is even starting to rise on NBA mock draft boards.

这种局外人的感觉一直困扰着他。“即使只是打篮球的华裔。作为一个高大的中国人，”他说。“你几乎觉得自己与世界有些格格不入。”

他为自己是华裔加拿大人而感到自豪。他不仅为自己演奏，也为观看他的亚裔孩子演奏。“你大概可以用手指数一数，在我们的会议上有多少亚裔人，这是我非常自豪的一点，”他说。“我为自己能代表我们的文化而感到自豪。”

他说，尤其是在针对亚裔美国人的暴力事件增加的情况下。他说，他经常收到种族主义的 Instagram 直接信息。“当我们输给马里兰队时，有人在我的 DM 中叫我‘愚蠢的华裔’，”他说。“有很多不敏感的东西......所有关于冠状病毒的笑话。”

他努力不让这件事影响自己，提醒自己有更多人支持他。他的父母，朱莉娅和格伦；他的队友；他的教练；普渡大学社区；以及敬仰他的孩子们，其中许多孩子参加了 2022 年他在多伦多与林书豪一起举办的青少年篮球训练营。埃迪发表了一次演讲：“我谈到了作为一名华裔打篮球的感受，”他说，“有时感觉自己像个局外人。”在普渡大学，他将这一点转化为自己的优势，成为了一个深受球迷喜爱的球员。埃迪现在在拉斐特西部被称为“大枫树”，几乎成了校园里的偶像。比赛结束后，他会花好几个小时签名。他的名字甚至在 NBA 模拟选秀榜上开始上升。
