Okay, so today I kinda went down a rabbit hole. It all started with seeing Zach Edey dominate a basketball game. The dude’s a beast, no doubt. But then, you know how your brain just wanders? I started wondering about his background, and specifically, if he had any Asian heritage. It’s a pretty random thought, I admit.
So, first thing I did was hit up Google. Straight up search: “is zach edey asian”. Pretty basic, right? I figured I’d get a quick yes or no. But the internet, as usual, is a mixed bag. Lots of articles about his basketball stats, his height (obviously!), and his college career. But nothing definitive about his ethnicity.
Next, I started digging a bit deeper. I checked out his Wikipedia page. Again, lots of info about his career, but nothing about his family’s background that specifically mentioned Asian heritage. It mentioned he’s Canadian, but that doesn’t really tell the whole story.
Then I tried looking for interviews with him or articles about his family. Sometimes these things come out in more personal pieces. I was hoping to find something where he talked about his parents or grandparents, maybe mentioning where they were from. But nada. It’s like his family history is a black box.
I even went down the crazy route of trying to find old family photos online. You know, the kind of thing people sometimes post on social media. Complete long shot, but I was curious. Nothing. Either his family is super private, or they’re just not big on the internet.
So, after all that digging, what did I find? Honestly? Nothing concrete. I couldn’t find any reliable information that confirms Zach Edey is Asian. It’s possible he has some Asian ancestry way back, but there’s no publicly available evidence to support that claim.
My conclusion? Sometimes, you just can’t find the answer to every random thought that pops into your head. And that’s okay! Maybe one day he’ll talk about his background more openly. Until then, I’ll just appreciate his skills on the court and stop obsessing over his ethnicity. It’s a good reminder that people are more than just their race or origin.
