The Memphis Grizzlies may not have their pick in this year’s NBA Draft. Here are some under the radar Mid Major prospects they should consider.

With the Memphis Grizzlies looking to convey their pick they need to start looking at some under the radar NBA Draft prospects.

Everyone wants to look at schools like Duke and Kentucky for prospects but here we take a look at some Mid-Major players who could be possible targets either later in the draft or as undrafted free agents.

There are a lot of NBA Draft prospects that I’m sure you are familiar with such as Zion Williamson and R.J. Barrett but in this piece, we’ll talk about some prospects you may not know much about. While I would enjoy discussing Ja Morant, he doesn’t classify as a sleeper anymore as he is being talked about as a top three pick.

Rui Hachimura of Gonzaga is a possible lottery pick and he has been on Mock Drafts for a while now and also playing at a powerhouse as Gonzaga makes him very well known. Another big-time Mid-Major team in Nevada has about four or five potential NBA players and we’ll all be able to watch them during March Madness so keep a close eye on them.

These are five players that you likely have heard of in some fashion but may not have seen them actually play often as they aren’t on TV as much as the top prospects.

The Grizzlies need to continue to build their roster and acquiring as many young assets as possible will help that. We have seen what undrafted rookie Allonzo Trier has done with the New York Knicks and if Memphis can get someone like that to make an impact that could make a huge difference going forward.
