Won't play Tuesday Edey (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Nuggets.

Impact 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.

Won't return Sunday Edey (ankle) will not return to Sunday's game against the Nuggets.

Impact Edey needed assistance to get to the locker room after rolling his ankle in the third quarter and was ruled out shortly after that. Edey will conclude Sunday's contest with seven points (3-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, two assists, two blocks and a steal in 14 minutes of action. Jay Huff will likely be the main beneficiary in Edey's absence, serving as the backup to Brandon Clarke.

Goes back to locker room Edey (ankle) was helped to the locker room in the third quarter of Sunday's game against the Nuggers, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Impact Edey limped to the locker room in the second quarter, but he was able to return for the start of the third quarter. However, he rolled his ankle in the third quarter and needed assistance back to the Grizzlies' locker room. If Edey is unable to return for the fourth quarter, Jay Huff will see an uptick in playing time off the bench.

Returns to game Sunday Edey returned to Sunday's game against the Nuggets, Drew Hill of The Daily Memphian reports.

Impact Edey left the game in the second quarter and limped back to the locker room, but he returned to the game in the third quarter. It remains unclear what Edey was dealing with, but his return to action indicates it should not be much of a concern going forward.

NOVEMBER 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Heads to locker room Sunday Edey went to the locker Sunday with an undisclosed injury, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Impact Edey left the game midway through the second quarter and went back to the locker room with an apparent limp. The injury remains unclear at this point, so his return is questionable. If he cannot return, Jay Huff will likely see more minutes at center.
