Ja bane GG JJJ edey starting 5. Smart Vince aldama Clark. 9 man rotation.

The idea that Zach can not block and play aggressive defence comes because Zach was instructed to not foul. He averaged less than 2 fouls a game on 19 minutes a game sometimes the entire game in the tournament.

How is he when he has a low post threat?

You're getting a brilliant basketball mind, and young coach with great trackrecord of constant overachiement. The name is Iisalo, not Iisola btw 😊

With who is rumored to be the cam spencer trade?

Let’s goooo

Grizzlies making all the right moves .. they silently doing it as well

Great pick, he is a bull in a china shop. He doesn't go to the basket softly.... he goes in to dunk the ball hard. Put him in the post and cut off him. The other teams front line will be in foul trouble every night.

I cant wait til u make a 2k clip wit Zach Edey 7'4 dunking on somebody!!

Memphis will love Zach Edey!

I'd be surprised if Edey did that. His reaction time and lateral speed are not good UConn guards moved in on him and scored. Edey got away with a lot of fouls in college. Be interesting if he continues to be allowed to elbow opponents. Still, he's a good guy and I wish him well.

Nobody stays locked in like Big Z…youll see it in his face when he steps to the line for his first FT…Shaq Edey is gonna dominate the summer league…Purdue nation is now a part of Grizz nation

Zach Edey is him

Though you said you had Dillingham #1???

He's going to be the best player to come out of this draft and the 8 teams who passed on him will truly regret it. I'm looking forward to him showing basketball fans across the country that the value of low post play and the big man being in the lane on defense still has tons of value and that the fundamentals of basketball still apply. I can't stand what the NBA has become with 5 guys standing around the 3 pt. line jacking up 50 three pointers per game on average. It's shit basketball.

Summer league is just up and down street ball. Not the kind of play you would expect Zack to excel in. I will watch though

Haven't looked forward to a summer league like this since drafting Ja. Edey, GG an the other 2 drafts will definitely be a big watch. Okc ain't playing getting Harteinstein now that they know we got Edey. Lets go Grizzlies!

Man, if this doesn't show you how much commitment he has to this team then I don't know what will. Lets get behind him Memphis fans. Let's go Grizz Nation!!💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

Watching from Toronto Canada. A new GRIZZLIES fan and new subscriber. The Canadian team consist of all NBA players.

Is this MemphisX from the boards? Just curious….

You know it was the Memphis Grizzly

Yes.

As a Memphis fan, I am excited about this pick. Zach Edey is going to excel with the Grizzlies and could be rookie all defensive player of the year.

the “he’s just big” narrative doesn’t make any sense. he scored more points that every player taller than 7’3 in the NCAA combined last year

Edey finna eat

Zack a DOG and gon be an issue for a long time for the Grizzlies....I was a little nervous San Antonio got wemby last year cause I knew we had to deal with him for the next 15+ years....now with this edey boy we good money and have a wemby stopper

This kid picked up the Game 6 years ago, couldn't even catch the ball, Painter in the staff turned him into the most dominate college basketball player in a generation, He is a natural athlete playing hockey and baseball originally........ spent hours after games signing autographs, Carried his team to National Championship game..... And the guy still get hate, what to hate about him other than he was dominate and people don't know the college 3 second rules.

It's more crazier when I knew Memphis traded for Cam Spencer too

Die hard Purdue fan here. Edey is one of, if not the best player Purdue has ever produced. His ability to draw fouls and finish the basket while not fouling himself Is on another level. I would be absolutely stunned if he does not become an NBA Superstar. He skipped The Green room NBA draft because he promised his coaches, family and friends that he would watch it and participate with them. He's got character, hard work ethic, And he's only going to make the Memphis grizzlies better.

Everyone hating on Zech Edey til he got drafted top 9. Funny how all the haters are silent now. Wish my Spurs drafted him at 8 though. Would have been a great twin towers with Wemby

People that know basketball, know exactly who Zach is and what he can do. Sure, I’m biased. He’s simply amazing and all you Memphis fans are about to find out and you will love him as much as we do. #alwaysaboiler

7’ 3/4” barefoot! With a 7’10 wingspan He will be better than Adams….next year

Go big Z

has anyone noticed he was shooting with both hands?

With Zach, Trip an GG, who the f will dare to drive in the paint?

I think that quite a few people don’t like Edey is because they can’t see past “small ball”. Edey to so big, so strong and so skilled that he does not need to play small ball.. Just do what he does best and teams will have to adjust to Edey, not the other way around I hope Edey does change the look of small ball, the same type of play over and over and over. I think that he just might help change status quo on what basketball should look like.Hey, look at the Joker and Embiid, big, slow and teams must adjust to them

If he’s on par with zubach we straight

Can't wait to see him use his fouls finally.

This is where i think Quine a few people don’t understand Zach Edey. He is so big, so strong and so skilled that he will force teams to adjust to him, not the other way around, With Edey anchoring everything down low, the defense will be able to stretch out and guard the 3. His presence on offense will force teams to double team him and the other shooters will we open, And on and on and on… He will be a franchise player, If Zach Edey proves to be a franchise player, If I was an owner, I would fire all the GMs that passed on Edey. Because, to me, picking Edey was a no-brainer. We shall see how this saga unfolds.

Crazy how hes basically 7’4 without shoes

Here in Memphis we love this pick

He's about to be far better. Mark my words. He's going to singlehandedly lengthen Ja's career by helping limit the contact he takes while going to the rim. He's going to dominate IMMEDIATELY. Edey is a hungry DAWG and by far the most fit athletic big 7'4" player I've seen. His muscle and tendon definition around his knee is like a guard. That is a great sign going forward when it comes to injuries and it's no wonder he was a damn iron man in college never missing games.

Edey's the best #1 player in the draft.

He can grow in potential in so many ways. He's bigger than shaq was at the same time, he actually can shoot 3s (watch the combine), he can be a board vacuum. Im looking forward to see which way he grows.

They needed a big they got a big.

Bru I ain’t heard this intro since like 2021

one reason edey average 25 pts per game is that he is the number one option at purdue. dont think he will be the number one option; so you can expect his scoring will be more in the line of 15pt max per game.

He will open up the lane for ja morant Guarding a penetrating ja would be diffuculy coz of edey lurking around the shaded lane ja can can just lob a pass to him anytime

Memphis x glad you’re back

Turn yourself up I’m trying to hear you in my pocket I gotta put the phone up to my ear
