The Quaxs Trading CenterMemphis Grizzlies wrapped up their NBA Summer League slate with a matchup against the New Orleans Pelicans. The game featured the return of big man Zach Edey, the Grizzlies' top pick in the 2024 NBA Draft.

This was just Edey's second game of Summer League and he wasn't on the court for long for Memphis. Edey played just nine minutes of action and totaled six points and three rebounds before leaving the game in the second quarter and not returning.

He appeared to land awkwardly on his right ankle after going up for a block during the second quarter against the Pelicans.

Tonight marked his first action for Memphis since a 97-95 overtime loss to the Utah Jazz back on July 8. Edey played well and made the tying layup to force overtime in the final seconds of regulation. He injured his ankle early on in that game but came back into the game to score 14 points along with 15 rebounds and four blocks.

Thursday marked the Grizzlies' final Summer League matchup on the schedule at time of publishing. Here is Edey's stats prior to leaving the game.
