Edey (ankle) contributed 13 points (6-8 FG, 1-1 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 24 minutes during Sunday's 116-110 loss to the Lakers.
ANALYSISEdey was back in action after missing the Grizzlies' last 12 games with a left ankle sprain, and though he came off the bench, he saw more minutes than starter
Brandon Clarke (13) and fellow backup center
Jay Huff (six minutes). While his playing time may remain somewhat volatile overall due to matchups, if Edey can routinely approach the 24 minutes he received Saturday, he'll likely be worth holding in most fantasy leagues. The rookie is currently averaging 11.3 points, 7.1 boards, 1.0 blocks, 0.9 steals and 0.8 assists in 20.4 minutes per game while shooting 61.9 percent from the field over his 15 appearances.
