Avery Gordon gives Purdue efficient frontcourt energy as a freshman
In the 2025-26 season, Avery Gordon emerged as a promising Purdue freshman forward, averaging 4.7 points and 2.1 rebounds in 8.6 minutes while shooting 53.1% from the field, with a standout 20-point first career start that showed real scoring upside.[2][3] At 6-foot-7, she offers efficient finishing, size, and immediate productivity, and the early returns suggest she can be a useful fit for teams that want a young, low-mistake frontcourt piece with room to grow.[1][3]
