"After consulting with the Grizzlies and multiple specialists, we decided this is the best approach for Zach long-term as it gets him back to 100% with no limitations," Edey's agent Mark Bartelstein of Priority Sports told ESPN on Saturday.

Edey averaged 9.2 points, 8.3 rebounds and an assist a game while shooting 58% from the floor this season. The Memphis big man also averaged 1.3 blocks per game in 66 appearances on the season.

Edey (73 first-team votes, 27 second-team votes) joined San Antonio's Stephon Castle and Atlanta's Zaccharie Risacher as the only players to appear on all 100 ballots for the NBA's All-Rookie Team. Grizzlies teammate Jaylen Wells and Washington's Alex Sarr rounded out the All-Rookie squad.
