Zach Edey Injury: Deemed week-to-week
Grizzlies head coach Taylor Jenkins said Tuesday that imaging on Edey's sprained left ankle was promising, but the rookie center is still being viewed as week-to-week, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
The rookie big man sprained his ankle during the third quarter of Sunday's win over the Nuggets, and he looks set to miss at least all three of the team's games this week while he recovers from the injury. Edey has turned in a promising start to his rookie campaign, averaging 11.1 points, 6.9 rebounds, 1.0 blocks and 0.9 steals across 20.1 minutes in 14 outings. While Edey is sidelined, Brandon Clarke and Jay Huff will likely cover most of the minutes at center.
