Eligibility
Availability
Zach Edey has been diagnosed with a stress reaction in his left ankle and will be re-evaluated in approximately four weeks.
Fantasy Impact
Edey, who underwent surgery on his left ankle in June to repair and restabilize it after a sprain during offseason training, has reinjured the ankle, which is certainly concerning. However, the Memphis Grizzlies announced he is expected to make a full recovery with a period of offloading and rehab. Since returning, Edey has been outstanding in 11 games, averaging 13.6 points, 11.1 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.9 blocks in 25.8 minutes per game. With him sidelined, Jock Landale is likely to step in as the team’s starting center, while Santi Aldama will see increased minutes off the bench.
Zach Edey was a stabilizing force in the paint during Friday's victory over the Clippers, leading the Grizzlies with two blocked shots in 29 minutes of action. The center also contributed 10 points (4-of-8 FG, 2-of-3 FT), eight rebounds, and one assist.
Fantasy Impact
While the statistical output was modest across the board, Edey's defensive presence was a key factor in the win. He battled effectively on both ends of the floor, providing solid, if unspectacular, production. Fantasy managers will look for a more robust line when the Grizzlies take on the Trail Blazers on Sunday.
Zach Edey scored 19 points (8-12 FG, 3-4 FT) to go along with 15 rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block in the Grizzlies 126-119 loss against the Spurs.
Fantasy Impact
Edey recorded his fourth straight double-double where he has recorded at least 15 rebounds in all four games. He has added 11 blocks in the same span.
Zach Edey scored 21 points (10-15 FG, 1-1 FT) to go with 15 rebounds and two blocks in Wednesday's win over the Pelicans.
Fantasy Impact
Edey was questionable for this game due to migraine symptoms, but he showed no limitations at all in what is now his biggest performance of the season to date. The second-year center missed the first few weeks of the season. He appears ready to hold his own in the paint now.
Zach Edey is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans.
Fantasy Impact
Edey exited Monday’s game against the Denver Nuggets after just six minutes due to a migraine, and his status for Wednesday’s game is now uncertain. If he’s unable to play, Jock Landale and Santi Aldama are expected to see an uptick in minutes.
