Pelicans rookie Yves Missi was painfully honest after losing a physical battle with Grizzlies big man Zach Edey.

Here's how Zach Edey fared in his 20th NBA game for the Memphis Grizzlies on Friday night against the New Orleans Pelicans.

Zach Edey drops 21 points and 16 rebounds to help lead the Grizzlies to a big 155-126 win over the Raptors.

The NBA season is now one-third of the way complete with the lines between contenders, pretenders, and also-rans becoming clearer by the day. Some games are expected to be far more competitive than others but individual matchups in blowouts are still worth watching.

December, Grizzlies center Zach Edey is well on his way to reclaiming Rookie of the Year-favorite status. The 7-foot-4 No. 9 draft pick was sidelined for nearly a month due to a left ankle injury, but has quickly regained his footing in putting up the best game of his fresh career versus the Raptors on Thursday night.
