According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, the Memphis Grizzlies will be without their young center due to him requiring surgery to re-stabilize his left ankle.

Zach Edey re-sprained his ankle during an offseason workout, which has forced him to make the tough decision to get surgery performed on that ankle.

With the timing of everything, reports are coming out that he will miss the beginning of next season.

“After consulting with the Grizzlies and multiple specialists, we decided this is the best approach for Zach long-term as it gets him back to 100% with no limitations,” Edey’s agent Mark Bartelstein said. “He will make a full recovery and be back better than ever.”

Last season, Edey averaged 9.2 points, 8.3 rebounds, and 1.3 blocks per game.

According to multiple reports, confirmed by the Memphis Grizzlies, Ja Morant is a true game-time decision for their must-watch win-or-go-home game against the Dallas Mavericks.

Due to the sprained right ankle injury, their franchise player missed Thursday’s practice. According to ESPN, Morant is receiving constant around-the-clock treatment to get his ankle in any condition to stave off elimination.

Right now, the 25-year-old is experiencing “significant” swelling in the ankle. He suffered the injury in Tuesday’s game against the Golden State Warriors. Morant landed on Buddy Hield’s foot, which caused him to roll the ankle and needed immediate medical attention.

Despite the pain and constant limping, he finished the game with 22 points on 9/18 shooting. Even though the comeback was in the making, Memphis did fall to Stephen Curry’s team in the final seconds of the game.

“If he’s physically able to do it, he will do it. It’s a legitimate game-time decision,” said Tuomas Iisalo.

For those that are unaware, or forgot, Tuomas Iisalo is the Grizzlies current interim head coach. He’s filling in until they find former head coach Taylor Jenkins permanent replacement.

According to multiple reports, the Memphis Grizzlies will not have to see Brandon Clarke undergo surgery for his existing knee injury.

Memphis announced on Monday that Clarke received an injection in his knee to be able to avoid surgery, which is always the second option.

Despite suffering a high-grade PCL sprain on March 19th against the Portland Trail Blazers, the team expects him to be ready for next season.

In 64 games this season, the 28-year-old averaged 8.3 points and 5.1 rebounds in 18.9 minutes per game.
