The Memphis Grizzlies' selection of Zach Edey with the ninth overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft has sparked significant debate. Critics, such as Yahoo Sports' Krysten Peek, argue that Edey's traditional center style is outdated and may struggle in the modern NBA, giving the Grizzlies a D grade for the pick. However, Grizzlies GM Zach Kleiman has expressed optimism about Edey's fit with the team, particularly alongside Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr. Supporters highlight Edey's impressive college career, including back-to-back National Player of the Year awards, and his dominant physical presence. Edey himself celebrated his draft night modestly with his Purdue teammates, showcasing his grounded personality. The decision has received mixed reactions from fans, with some excited about his potential and others skeptical about his adaptation to the NBA.
