Edward L. House (born May 14, 1978 in Berkeley, California) is an American professional basketball player currently with the NBA's New Jersey Nets.
House attended Arizona State University in Tempe, Arizona. Though Arizona State could not recruit a good supporting cast, House became the all-time scoring leader at Arizona State with 2,044 points in his career and is the only player to score more than 2,000. He and Ike Diogu are the only two Sun Devils to be named Pac-10 Player of the Year. House is the fifth Sun Devil to be voted onto the All-Conference team twice. He is also the career record holder at Arizona State for field goals and steals. He set the single-season scoring average record for the school with 23.0 points per game in 1999-2000. In that season, he was named Pac-10 Player of the Week a record-tying four times (matched only by Ed O'Bannon, Chris Mills, and Gary Payton). House set a single-game Arizona State record with a 61-point effort in double-overtime against the University of California Golden Bears on the road in his senior season. It was also a memorable homecoming of sorts for him, as he had starred in high school for nearby Hayward High. In the game, House also set a record with 18 made free throws in 19 attempts. He is one of only three players to average in double figures in four consecutive seasons at Arizona State since it joined the Pac-10 (the others being Reggie Jordan and Bo Outlaw).
House was selected by the Miami Heat in the second round (37th overall) of the 2000 NBA Draft. He is married to former Sacramento Kings teammate Mike Bibby's sister Charlsie.
On November 18, 2005, he scored a career-high 31 points against the Utah Jazz.
On August 12, 2006, he signed a one year, $1.5 million deal with the New Jersey Nets.
As of March 13, 2007, Eddie House has a 41.7 three-point percentage for the 2006-2007 season.
