C.J. Cox emerged as a steady two-way backcourt piece for Purdue
In the 2025-26 season, C.J. Cox showed he can handle real Big Ten minutes, starting all 39 games and averaging 8.5 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 1.3 assists while shooting 45.7% from the field and 37.3% from three. His appeal is his reliability: he’s a polished, efficient guard who produced even better in league play, and his season-long role suggests trust from the staff. He looks like a fit for teams that value consistency, spacing, and a player who can contribute without needing high usage.
