Memphis Grizzlies rookie Zach Edey was on a mission against the 76ers
Zach Edey had one of the best performances of his young NBA career against the Philadelphia 76ers on Saturday night. It was a game where the Grizzlies led wire-to-wire and dismantled the shorthanded 76ers 124-107.
Edey put up 10 points, 10 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, and 1 block on 57% shooting in only 22 minutes. Within those 10 rebounds included five offensive rebounds, something that Edey was specifically looking to do against the 76ers. "We knew coming in that they were an offensive rebounding team, they're second in the league," Edey said. "So that's a big part of their offense, they score 20-something points just off of second chance. We came in with that mentality, gotta limit that."In six games this season, Edey is averaging 9.0 points and 5.0 rebounds on 58% shooting from the field.
"I'm just trying to take it game by game, getting better every game," Edey said. "That's how I did it in college. Nobody really knew me when I was a freshman, but by the time I was a senior. So just trying to take it like that, game by game."FARBOD ESNAASHARI
