This season has been a very mixed bag for the Memphis Grizzlies, but they have one thing they can all agree on: Zach Edey has been playing great basketball.
The rookie star has had a very promising season, and his last four games have highlighted that.
According to StatMuse, Edey has averaged 10.3 points, 17.3 rebounds, and 1.8 blocks per game during the last four matches, shooting 63.0 percent from the field.
He is currently leading the league in rebounds, but can he keep it up in the playoffs?

For the season, Edey has an average of 9.3 points, 8.2 rebounds, and 1.3 blocks.
At 7-foot-4, he is one of the tallest big men in the league and has been an important part of the Grizzlies’ lineup since the start of the season.
There were questions and concerns about Edey last summer, with many wondering if he had what it takes to make it in the NBA and if he was mature and physically strong enough for a long career.
Edey has shown that he’s a valuable player, and one who could get even better with time.
The Grizzlies are the seventh seed in the West right now, holding a 47-32 record and battling for a spot in the upcoming Play-In Tournament.
However, if they play their cards right, they could climb out of Play-In contention and secure their spot in the playoffs.
It looks like Edey’s first year in the league will go all the way to the postseason.
How will he perform under the bright lights of the playoffs?
If he is creating more than 17 rebounds per game, the Grizzlies could make some serious noise in the weeks ahead.
