After recording two assists and two rebounds, he was subbed out with 03:28 back in the initial period.

Edey was subbed in with 08:35 left before half and did not have much influence on the box’s score. A wrong passport and a personal mistake later he was subbed out again, with 04:11 still back on the game trip before the interval.

Things didn’t get much better for Edey when he got into bad trouble early in the third quarter and picked up his third personal mistake after a short bunch of Steven Adams.
