Saunders was selected by the Grizzlies with the No. 32 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft.
The soon-to-be 25-year-old is one of the older players in this draft, but he's also one of the more NBA-ready guys, with a pure shooting stroke and high basketball IQ. Saunders put in averages of 18.0 points, 5.8 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 2.6 triples and 1.7 steals per game on 49/38/82 shooting splits during his senior season at BYU, and he could immediately carve out a role on this rebuilding Memphis team.
