Edey underwent surgery Tuesday to resolve discomfort and bone stress in his left ankle, and he'll miss the rest of the 2025-26 season.
EDGE Analysis
Memphis announced Sunday that Edey would require surgery, but he wasn't officially ruled out for the rest of the season until after going under the knife Tuesday. The club expects the big man to make a full recovery ahead of the 2026-27 campaign.

The Grizzlies announced Sunday that Edey is without a timetable for a return and will undergo surgery to address lingering discomfort and talar bone stress in his left ankle.
EDGE Analysis
Edey underwent surgery on the same ankle last June and hasn't played since Dec. 7 due to the ongoing injury. Memphis is expected to provide a clearer timeline for the big man's return to action following his surgery, though it wouldn't be shocking to see the 22-36 Grizzlies shut him down for the remainder of the season. On a more positive note, the 2024 first-rounder is expected to make a full recovery.

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 being re-evaluated in six weeks.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Head coach Tuomas Iisalo said Sunday that Edey (ankle) will travel with the Grizzlies for Thursday's game against the Magic in Berlin, Damichael Cole of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Edey (ankle) is out for Sunday's game against the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
Edey hasn't played since Dec. 7, and it's unclear when he'll be able to return to the hardwood. The big man, who's averaging 13.6 points and 11.1 rebounds per game this season, should be considered doubtful for the Grizzlies' next game against the Magic on Thursday. He's expected to be re-evaluated soon.

Edey will be re-evaluated in about four weeks due to a stress reaction in his left ankle, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
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.

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.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Edey finished Tuesday's 126-119 loss to the Spurs with 19 points (8-12 FG, 3-4 FT), 15 rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 30 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
It was another dominant display on the glass for Edey, who grabbed seven of his game-high 15 rebounds in the fourth quarter of Tuesday's loss. The second-year center has grabbed at least 15 boards in four straight games and five times over his last six outings. Since making his regular-season debut in mid-November after fully recovering from offseason right ankle surgery, Edey is averaging 14.2 points, 11.6 rebounds, 0.9 assists, 2.1 blocks and 0.8 steals over 25.9 minutes per game.

EDGE Analysis
Edey played the best game of his young career Sunday, racking up career highs in scoring and blocks. Edey also continued his dominant play on the glass, grabbing a game-high 17 boards and extending his streak of games with at least 15 rebounds to three. Over those three games, he is averaging 19.3 points, 17.0 rebounds and 3.3 blocks in 32 minutes per contest.

Edey finished with five points (2-4 FG, 1-2 FT), 19 rebounds, three blocks and two assists over 32 minutes during Friday's 112-107 win over the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
Although Edey had a muted impact in the scoring column, he grabbed a game- and season-high 19 rebounds. He also swatted a game-best three shots. The second-year center has tallied at least 15 boards in each of his last three completed games, dominating on the glass during that stretch. Through seven regular-season appearances, he's averaging 11.0 points, 10.3 rebounds and 1.9 blocks in 24.7 minutes per contest.
