Posts double-double with two blocks Edey delivered 11 points (4-6 FG, 3-5 FT), 13 rebounds, an assist and two blocks across 25 minutes in Wednesday's 107-103 loss to the Pacers.

Impact Edey delivered his first double-double of the season while providing two blocks despite playing just 25 minutes. His efficient shooting and strong rebounding helped compensate for limited offensive opportunities. Edey's fantasy value remains anchored by rebounds, field-goal percentage and rim protection, although his relatively modest workload and scoring figures can restrict his overall ceiling. He's averaging just 7.4 points, albeit with 8.1 rebounds and 1.6 blocks, per game.

Another frustrating performance Edey provided six points (2-6 FG, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, one assist and two blocks in 19 minutes before fouling out of Monday's 135-134 overtime loss to New Orleans.

Impact Edey was limited to no more than 20 minutes for the third straight game, providing endless headaches for fantasy managers. It's clear that Memphis is taking a cautious approach when it comes to ramping Edey up, while foul trouble has also been an ongoing concern. He is currently well outside the top 100 through six games, averaging 6.8 points, 7.3 rebounds and 1.5 blocks in just 20.0 minutes per game.

Blocks two shots in return Edey produced four points (0-2 FG, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, two assists and two blocks across 21 minutes during Monday's 110-105 win over the Jazz.

Impact Edey was back in the rotation after missing Sunday's game due to injury management. While it was great to see him back on the floor, early foul trouble limited him to just 21 minutes. It continues what has been a rough start to the season, both in terms of production and minutes played. With that said, Memphis is well within its rights to play it safe, given that Edey is coming off a relatively significant foot injury. He remains a clear hold, although managers may have to expect plenty of ups and downs, at least for the first month of the season.

OCTOBER 27 • ROTOWIRE

Removed from injury report Edey (ankle) is off the injury report for Monday's game versus Utah.

Impact This was the expectation after Edey sat out the first part of this back-to-back set for maintenance reasons. The Grizzlies appear to be easing the big man into action after he missed the start of training camp due to ankle and elbow surgeries, as Edey has yet to transcend 22 minutes in either of his first two appearances.

Ty Jerome scores 31 points to lead the Grizzlies to a 123-112 win over the Kings

Ty Jerome had 31 points, making all 14 of his free throw attempts, to lead the Memphis Grizzlies to a 123-112 win over the Sacramento Kings on Sunday night

OCTOBER 26 • Associated Press

Resting Sunday Edey has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Sacramento due to left ankle injury management.

Impact Edey will sit out the front end of this back-to-back set. With the big man unavailable, Isaiah Stewart and Quinten Post are candidates to see increased playing time.

Just misses double-double Friday Edey posted eight points (4-6 FG, 0-1 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal over 22 minutes during Friday's 111-108 victory over the Warriors.

Impact The third-year center came up one bucket short of his first double-double of the season. Edey saw his workload managed for a second straight game after playing only 11 regular-season games in 2025-26 due to ankle surgery, but he's still averaging 9.5 boards a game even when limited to minutes in the low 20s. Once the Grizzlies begin to let his loose, the 24-year-old should start dominating the glass again.

Collects nine boards in win Edey posted six points (3-5 FG), nine rebounds and two blocks across 21 minutes during Wednesday's 123-103 victory over the Jazz.

Impact Edey grabbed three offensive rebounds and protected the rim effectively despite playing just 21 minutes in his first regular-season appearance following two left ankle surgeries earlier this year. Memphis has emphasized managing the center's workload carefully, which could limit his immediate fantasy ceiling. Nevertheless, his rebounding and shot-blocking production in relatively modest minutes illustrates the value he can provide as his conditioning improves.

Team option picked up Memphis exercised Edey's team option Tuesday.

Impact Edey is now officially under team control until at least 2028-29. The third-year big man is healthy this fall and set for a big role at center for the rebuilding Grizzlies.

Sturdy under basket in win Edey logged 10 points (3-5 FG, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one block over 21 minutes in Friday's 117-98 preseason win over the Hornets.

Impact Edey scored 10 points in his second straight game, and his minutes gradually climbed during the preseason. The third-year center appears to be trending toward a full regular-season workload, a promising sign for Memphis fans who have waited a while to see his full potential.

Nets 10 points with three stocks Edey tallied 10 points (3-3 FG, 4-6 FT), five rebounds, two steals and one block over 16 minutes in Friday's 104-100 preseason win over the Bulls.

Impact Edey also committed three turnovers without handing out a single dime in his limited floor time, and ball security has been a bit of an issue for him. Though it's just an 11-game sample, Edey averaged 2.4 turnovers in 25.8 minutes per game last season. Still, he's an elite rebounder and shot blocker, so if he can stay healthy, Edey could easily be a top-60 player.

More minutes on tap Edey will play in Friday's preseason game against the Bulls and is expected to see an uptick in minutes, Rob Fischer of FanDuel Sports Network Southeast reports.

Impact Edey made his 2026 preseason debut in Wednesday's loss to Orlando, posting two points, four rebounds, an assist, a steal and a block in 10 minutes. He underwent surgeries on his left elbow and ankle in March, and the big man will likely continue ramping up his workload ahead of the regular season.

OCTOBER 9 • ROTOWIRE

Will play Wednesday Edey (ankle) will play in Wednesday's preseason game against the Magic, Chris Herrington of The Daily Memphian reports.

Impact Although he'll play limited minutes Wednesday, it appears Edey has made swift progress in his recovery from elbow and ankle surgeries after the Grizzlies initially had Opening Night as the big man's target for a return. Fantasy managers should feel a bit better about drafting Edey at his ADP now that he's healthy.

OCTOBER 7 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out Monday Edey (ankle) completed a full on-court workout Monday but won't play in the Grizzlies' preseason game against the Hawks, Michael Wallace of the Grizzlies' official site reports.

Impact As expected, Edey will be held out of the Grizzlies' preseason opener, and it's not yet clear whether he'll suit up at all during the preseason. However, the big man is trending toward playing Opening Night after undergoing surgeries on his left elbow and ankle in March.

OCTOBER 5 • ROTOWIRE

Not starting Monday Edey is not in the starting lineup for Monday's preseason game against the Hawks, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Impact Edey is not expected to play in Monday's exhibition, and it's unclear if he'll suit up at all for the preseason, but he is expected to be ready for opening night. Edey was active at training camp, participating in all practices and 5-on-5 work, and he's reportedly moving around better than ever.
