Returns to starting lineup
Edey is in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Warriors. Edey will return to the Grizzlies' starting lineup for the first time since Nov. 6, and he does it after delivering 13 points and 10 rebounds in a loss to the Lakers on Sunday, Dec. 15. The rookie big man is averaging 10.8 points, 6.6 rebounds and 0.8 blocks per game in a starting role across nine appearances this season.
Productive off bench in return
Edey contributed 13 points (6-8 FG, 1-1 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 24 minutes during Sunday's 116-110 loss to the Lakers. Edey missed just two shots in his 24-minute cameo off the bench Sunday and was a wrecking force on the glass. It's fair to say Edey didn't show any rust after a 12-game absence, as this was the first time he stepped on the hardwood since Nov. 17. The rookie notched his third double-double of the season, and if he stays healthy, it should be a matter of time before he recovers the starting center role for Memphis.
Making return Sunday
Edey (ankle) is available for Sunday's game against the Lakers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports. Edey has missed the last 12 games due to a left ankle sprain, but he will return to the lineup Sunday. Considering the amount of time he has missed, it wouldn't be surprising to see Edey on a minute restriction as he returns to form.
Upgraded to questionable
Edey (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Lakers. Edey hasn't stepped on the hardwood since Nov. 17, but the questionable tag suggests he might have a shot at returning Sunday following a 12-game absence. Edey has started in nine of his 14 appearances this season, averaging 11.1 points, 6.9 rebounds and 1.0 blocks per game.
Out again Friday
Edey (ankle) has officially been ruled out for Friday's game versus the Nets. No surprise here, as Edey was originally deemed doubtful for the contest. The rookie big man has been sidelined since Nov. 17, but appears to be inching towards a return. His next opportunity to return to the court will come Sunday in Los Angeles versus the Lakers.
Doubtful to play Friday
Edey (ankle) is doubtful for Friday's game against the Nets. The towering big man might be able to return earlier than initially expected, as a Dec. 5 report signaled he would be re-evaluated in a couple of weeks. Either way, the doubtful tag suggests his chances of suiting up Friday are slim. Edey hasn't played since Nov. 17.
Likely to miss two more weeks
Coach Taylor Jenkins said Thursday that the Grizzlies weren't comfortable with where Edey (ankle) was in his recovery process, and he'll be monitored for a potential return to game action over the next couple of weeks, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports. Edey is expected to miss more time due to a left ankle sprain, and he hasn't played since Nov. 17. The rookie big man was assigned to the club's G League affiliate -- the Mempis Hustle -- to get a practice in on Wednesday, though it seemingly did not go according to plan as he's now behind his original schedule for a return to game action. Jay Huff, Santi Aldama and Jake LaRavia should continue seeing an uptick in playing time with Edey sidelined.
Assigned to G League
The Grizzlies assigned Edey (ankle) to the G League's Memphis Hustle on Wednesday. Edey will spend the afternoon with the Hustle to get a practice in, and he'll be recalled right after. Edey is targeting a return to NBA action Saturday against the Celtics.
Eyeing return Saturday
Coach Taylor Jenkins said Tuesday that Edey (ankle) is progressing well through on-court activity, and he could potentially suit up for Saturday's game against the Celtics, Michael Wallace of the Grizzlies' official site reports. Edey will miss Thursday's game against the Kings, though the Grizzlies are optimistic that the big man will make his return during their back-to-back set on Saturday and Sunday. If he plays Saturday, the rookie will likely remain limited after a nine-game absence due to a left ankle sprain. Through 14 regular-season outings (nine starts), Edey has averaged 11.1 points, 6.9 rebounds, 1.0 blocks, 0.9 steals and 0.8 assists across 20.1 minutes per game while shooting 61.0 percent from the floor.
