Zach Edey Fantasy Stats

Memphis Grizzlies center Zach Edey (ankle) is unlikely to play in Monday's preseason opener against the Atlanta Hawks, according to The Commercial Appeal's Damichael Cole. Memphis remains focused on having Edey ready for the Oct. 21 regular-season opener against Utah. The third-year center played in only 11 games last season after recurring left ankle issues required two surgeries, but he averaged 13.6 points, 11.1 rebounds, and 1.9 blocks in 25.8 minutes when available. Isaiah Stewart and Quinten Post should get more minutes up front while Edey is out, but Edey still has plenty of rebounding and shot-blocking upside if his ankle holds up.

Memphis Grizzlies center Zach Edey (ankle) came through his first week of training camp in good shape, according to Drew Hill of The Daily Memphian. Memphis entered camp planning to have the 24-year-old ready for the regular season, but preseason action remains possible depending on his progress. Edey played just 11 games last season before undergoing a second left ankle surgery in March, averaging 13.6 points, 11.1 rebounds, and 1.9 blocks in 25.8 minutes. With Isaiah Stewart and Quinten Post also available up front, Memphis doesn't need to rush him. Any preseason minutes would be another encouraging sign ahead of the Oct. 21 opener.

Memphis Grizzlies center Zach Edey (ankle, elbow) has been cleared to be a full go, according to Damichael Cole of The Commercial Appeal. General manager Zach Kleiman said Edey is currently cleared for full-speed, full-court activity and is expected to be ready for the start of the regular season, though Memphis could limit his preseason minutes. Edey hasn't played since Dec. 7 after undergoing ankle and elbow procedures in March. Before being sidelined, he averaged 13.6 points, 11.1 rebounds, and 1.9 blocks while shooting 63.3 percent across 11 games. Isaiah Stewart and Quinten Post give Memphis other frontcourt options, but Edey's rebounding, blocks, and efficient scoring should keep him firmly in the fantasy mix if he stays healthy.

Memphis Grizzlies center Zach Edey (ankle) appears on track for the start of the season after undergoing left ankle surgery in March, ESPN's Michael Wright reports. It was the second procedure on that ankle in nine months, and the recovery limited the 7-foot-3 big man to 11 games in 2025-26. The production was there when he was upright, as Edey averaged 13.6 points, 11.1 rebounds, and 1.9 blocks while improving steadily down the stretch. With Memphis fully into a rebuild, his role is expected to grow alongside third overall pick Cameron Boozer, giving the Grizzlies one of the more physical frontcourts in the league. The offseason addition of Isaiah Stewart is worth monitoring as insurance, but if the ankle holds, Edey has a real path into the Most Improved Player conversation.

Memphis Grizzlies center Zach Edey (ankle) underwent season-ending surgery on Tuesday. The team announced on Sunday that Edey will have an ankle procedure but didn't specify a recovery timeline. Now we know that Edey's season is over. The good news is that the 23-year-old big man is expected to make a full recovery ahead of the 2026-27 regular season. Unfortunately, Edey appeared in only 11 games this term, averaging 13.6 points, 11.1 rebounds, and 1.9 blocks in 25.8 minutes. With Santi Aldama (knee) also hurt, Memphis has to rely on Olivier-Maxence Prosper, GG Jackson II, and Taylor Hendricks in the frontcourt.

The Memphis Grizzlies announced on Sunday that center Zach Edey (ankle) will undergo another surgery to address "ongoing discomfort" in his left ankle. He is anticipated to recover fully, with "a timeline" regarding his recovery to be provided after the procedure. The 23-year-old appeared in 66 games as a rookie, averaging 9.2 points, 8.3 rebounds, and 1.3 blocks. He underwent surgery on his left ankle back on June 10. Unfortunately, Edey logged only 13 games throughout the 2025-26 campaign before he went back on the shelf. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect to see him on the floor for the remainder of the season. There is also reason to believe he may miss at least the start of training camp, although it's too early to speculate. While Edey is sidelined, Olivier-Maxence Prosper, coming off a 16-point, 10-rebound performance, should see the most minutes at the five, even if he's not starting. That should remain the case until Santi Aldama (knee) is cleared to suit up.

Memphis Grizzlies center Zach Edey (ankle) continues to recover from a stress reaction in his left ankle and will continue rehabilitation before being re-evaluated in six weeks. The 23-year-old big man has been out of action since Dec. 11 and despite rehabbing for over a month, it appears he will need another six weeks before he's able to return. Brandon Clarke (calf) will also miss a significant amount of time, so Jock Landale will continue to be relied upon to start at center. Landale has appeared in 37 games this season, averaging 11.1 points and 6.3 rebounds across 22.6 minutes per contest.

According to Shams Charania of ESPN, Memphis Grizzlies center Zach Edey (ankle) is dealing with a stress reaction in his left ankle and will be re-evaluated in about four weeks. The injury will likely keep the 24-year-old big man out of action until the beginning of January. Despite the setback, Edey is having a fantastic season so far, averaging 13.6 points, 11.1 rebounds, 1.9 blocks, and 1.1 assists across 25.8 minutes per contest in the 11 games he's been able to suit up. Jock Landale will see an expanded role at center while Edey is sidelined. Landale nearly registered a double-double in his last outing, posting 15 points, eight rebounds, two assists and two steals during a 119-96 win over the Trail Blazers on Sunday.

Memphis Grizzlies center Zach Edey (illness) will play on Wednesday versus the New Orleans Pelicans. He logged only six minutes in Monday's loss to the Denver Nuggets because of a migraine headache and was listed as questionable heading into this one. Luckily, the 23-year-old will be on the floor. Edey is still working his way back after sitting out to begin the 2025 campaign, averaging 10.2 points, 7.6 points, 1.6 blocks, and 1.0 steals. However, he's still worth a start in nearly all formats.

Memphis Grizzlies center Zach Edey (head) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup against New Orleans after exiting Monday's loss in the first quarter and not returning. His potential absence positions Jock Landale and Santi Aldama for increased roles, and both have shown they can produce when given minutes. Landale is coming off a 26-point, 10-rebound effort in 31 minutes, while Aldama contributed 12 points, six rebounds, six assists, two steals, and two blocks in the same game as Memphis sorted through its frontcourt rotation.
