Grizzlies’ Zach Edey more likely to pass over get started of NBA season

Zach Edey is more likely to pass over the beginning of the 2025-2026 NBA season whilst getting better from surgical treatment.

The Memphis Grizzlies heart sprained his left ankle whilst figuring out all over the week. He is ready to go through surgical treatment for it and can most probably pass over the start of the season as he recovers.

“During an offseason training session this week, Edey re-sprained his left ankle. Imaging revealed excessive ligamentous laxity, which will require Edey to undergo surgery to address the laxity and re-stabilize his ankle,” the Grizzlies’ observation stated.

“A preliminary timeline will be provided following surgery, but Edey is expected to make a full recovery.”

He averaged 9.2 issues, 8.3 rebounds and 1.3 blocks according to sport whilst completing 5th in NBA Rookie of the Year Award vote casting. He made the All-Rookie workforce.
