Impact Edey landed on another player's foot after attempting to block his shot and rolled his ankle, although he was able to walk off the court under his own power. That said, he's almost certainly done for Thursday's game and it wouldn't be surprising to see Memphis hold their lottery pick out of the remainder of these exhibition games in Las Vegas. He looked solid while out there, though, hitting all three of his shots on his way to six points, three rebounds and one block over nine minutes.
