Out another six weeks The Grizzlies announced Wednesday that Edey continues to recover from a stress reaction in his left ankle and will maintain his current plan of offloading and rehabilitation before...

Impact After Edey initially sustained the injury Dec. 11, the Grizzlies relayed that the second-year center would be shut down for at least four weeks before being re-evaluated. Despite having spent the past month rehabbing the injury, Edey seemingly hasn't taken any major steps forward in his recovery and will now need another six weeks to let his ankle heal up. As a result of this latest update, Edey appears unlikely to be ready to return to game action until at least early March, making it tough to justify rostering him in most redraft formats. With Brandon Clarke (calf) also facing a long-term absence, Jock Landale should continue to hold down the fort as the Grizzlies' starting center.

Impact Edey is set to miss his 15th straight game Sunday as he recovers from a stress reaction in his left foot. However, he's traveling with the team to Europe and could return against Orlando on Thursday or in next Sunday's rematch against the Magic in London. Iisalo also relayed that an update on the big man's progress is expected soon. If he remains on the shelf, Jock Landale will likely continue to see increased minutes.

Grizzlies' Zach Edey likely out at least a month with his latest ankle injury

DECEMBER 11, 2025 • Associated Press

To miss at least four weeks Edey (ankle) will be re-evaluated in about four weeks, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

Impact Edey is dealing with a stress reaction in his left ankle, which will keep him sidelined until sometime after the new year. The star big man is averaging 13.6 points, 11.1 rebounds, 1.9 blocks and 1.1 assists in 25.8 minutes per game while shooting 63.3 percent from the field over 11 games this season. With Edey on the shelf, Jock Landale figures to fill the void at center while Santi Aldama handles more playing time from the bench.

Records fifth double-double Edey fouled out of Sunday's 119-96 win over the Trail Blazers after recording 12 points (5-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 10 rebounds and three assists across 22 minutes.

Impact Edey is already up to five double-doubles in just 11 outings amid a dominant start in 2025-26, and he even tied a season high in dimes. The 2024 first-rounder is certainly off and running after a delayed start to the season due to offseason ankle surgery, averaging 13.6 points, 11.1 rebounds, 1.9 blocks and 1.1 assists in 25.8 minutes per game while shooting 63.3 percent from the field.
