Rookie Memphis Grizzlies center Zach Edey is gradually finding his way.

Edey put together one of his best plays of the preseason on Monday night in Indianapolis. The 7-foot-4 center patiently posted up Indiana Pacers center Isaiah Jackson before getting two feet in the paint and doing a quick spin over his right shoulder for a thunderous dunk over two players.

That play showed Edey's patience, strength and quickness with a smooth spin that caught Jackson and the lurking help defender off guard. The dunk put an exclamation point on Edey's six points scored in the first quarter at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.

Both Edey and his teammates have talked about wanting to be better when he has advantageous situations on offense. Edey's teammates spaced the floor and got out of his way on the slam.
