Zach Edey to Miss Several Weeks with Injury

Edey, averaging 13.6 points and 11.1 rebounds this season, will be out at least four weeks due to a stress reaction in his surgically repaired left ankle, Memphis said.

  • On Dec. 11, 2025, the Memphis Grizzlies announced Zach Edey will miss at least four weeks due to a stress reaction in his left ankle and will be re-evaluated then.
  • Edey underwent surgery in June to repair and restabilize his left ankle, causing him to miss the first 13 games before debuting on Nov. 15.
  • Edey is averaging 13.6 points and a team-high 11.1 rebounds in 11 games this season, with the Grizzlies keeping him on a minute restriction around 25 minutes early and a season-high 34:39 on Nov. 26.
  • Memphis will turn to Jock Landale and Jaren Jackson Jr. at center during Edey's absence, complicating an Edey–Ja Morant pairing with Morant expected back soon; Brandon Clarke is expected in 2-to-5 weeks before the Dec. 12 game at FedExForum.
  • Edey's agent Mark Bartelstein said this is a management plan to optimize long-term health, with the Grizzlies expecting a full recovery and excellent short- and long-term prognosis as defensive rating and paint points improve.
