• Grizzlies' Zach Edey: Deemed week-to-week

  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Grizzlies head coach Taylor Jenkins said Tuesday that imaging on Edey's sprained left ankle was promising, but the rookie center is still being viewed as week-to-week, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports. The rookie big man sprained his ankle during the third quarter of Sunday's win over the Nuggets, and he looks set to miss at least all three of the team's games this week while he recovers from the injury. Edey has turned in a promising start to his rookie campaign, averaging 11.1 points, 6.9 rebounds, 1.0 blocks and 0.9 steals across 20.1 minutes in 14 outings. While Edey is sidelined, Brandon Clarke and Jay Huff will likely cover most of the minutes at center.

  Edey (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Nuggets. Edey rolled his ankle in the third quarter of Sunday's game against Denver, and the rookie big man was diagnosed with a sprained ankle. It's unlikely Edey will be able to suit up for the Grizzlies' second leg of a back-to-back Wednesday against the 76ers. While Edey is sidelined, Jay Huff should see additional playing time off the bench behind starting center Brandon Clarke.

  Edey won't return to Sunday's game against the Nuggets due to a left ankle injury. Edey needed assistance to get to the locker room after rolling his ankle in the third quarter and was ruled out shortly thereafter. The rookie center will conclude Sunday's contest with seven points (3-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal in 14 minutes. Jay Huff and Brandon Clarke will absorb the minutes at center for the remainder of the contest, while Edey's status for Tuesday's rematch with the Nuggets is now in question.
