Zach Edey shatters rookie records but Memphis falls short against Brooklyn

Zach Edey had a career night, but it came in a losing cause against the Brooklyn Nets as the Memphis Grizzlies lost 106-104. Edey shattered rookie records, becoming the first rookie with a 20/10 game, shooting at least 90% from the floor.

He was a force in the second half amid the Grizzlies' struggles, helping them keep it close. However, the Nets edged ahead in the clutch behind another Dennis Schroder masterclass. The German finished with 20 points and six assists, shooting 7 of 15, including 2 of 7 from 3-point range.

Meanwhile, the Grizzlies got 25 points and nine assists from Ja Morant on 10 of 22 shooting. A relatively quiet night from the rest of the roster and 3-point shooting struggles in the absence of Desmond Bane hindered Memphis' chances of avenging Wednesday's loss to Brooklyn.

Nevertheless, Zach Edey's performance can give the team some confidence as the Grizzlies look to bounce back and string a lengthy winning stretch together over the coming weeks.
