Memphis Grizzlies center Zach Edey followed up his preseason debut with a 10-point outing in a 119-94 loss to the Charlotte Hornets. Edey saw most of his points come at the free-throw line. One of Edey's three defensive rebounds (out of five total) came after he blocked a Hornets player and secured the rebound before his teammates took it down the other way for points.

Memphis opened its preseason on Monday in a 121-116 win against the Dallas Mavericks. That was the first look at the Grizzlies' new-look offense and two members of the draft class. Less turnovers and more cohesive ball movement are some of the improvements Grizzlies coach Taylor Jenkins mentioned he's hopeful to see on Thursday.
