Happy international Zach Edey day to all who celebrate. Which team (rumored ones) would be the best fit for him in your opinions?

Memphis or Oklahoma City.

Knicks if he slides.

The Wiz. With Avdija gone, they can run with Poole, Kispert, Coulibaly (who takes on Avdija's role as the only guy trying on the defensive end), Kuzma, and Sarr/Edey. The question is whether he lasts until 14.

Ding ding.

Now just need to see how he develops offensive chemistry with Ja and Bane. Defensively, Smart and JJJ are some of the best possible pairings for a guy you want to keep in drop as much as possible.
