The Memphis Grizzlies face uncertainty at the point guard position despite having several options on their roster. A deeper dive reveals the uncertainty and upside questions within the group. Ja Morant has been the franchise's star player since 2019, but his future in Memphis remains uncertain. Scotty Pippen Jr. and Ty Jerome are quality NBA players, though both currently project more as reserve guards than long-term starting options. Then there's a youthful group that includes Javon Small, Walter Clayton Jr., and Jahmai Mashack. Each has shown positive flashes in spurts, but all still have much to prove to solidify their standing on the roster. With that in mind, the Grizzlies could look to the June 23-24 draft for answers. They own picks No. 3, No. 16, and No. 32. The No. 3 pick is unlikely to be used on a point guard. For now, we'll project that the Grizzlies address the position with the No. 16 selection. Here are four names who could be available in that range. Christian Anderson, a sophomore from Texas Tech, spent two seasons at the school. After showing promise as a shooter during his freshman season, he continued to improve in that area while developing into one of the better playmakers in college basketball. There are size concerns at 6-2, 180 pounds, but Anderson's combination of high-level 3-point shooting last season (41.5% on 260 attempts) and playmaking ability should translate well to the next level. Labaron Philon, a sophomore from Alabama, is the highest projected pick among this group. The Alabama guard averaged 22 points and five assists as a sophomore while showcasing a smooth offensive game built more on pace and footwork than explosive athleticism. He has drawn comparisons to former Grizzlies guard Mike Conley. Philon called those comparisons 'a great thing to see' during the NBA draft combine on May 13. Philon also discussed what he would bring to the fan base and organization that drafts him. 'They getting a great point guard,' he said. 'Someone that's likable in the basketball community. A lot of people like my play style. I'm a fan-loving guy, so really just loving the community and whatever organization I get drafted to.' Bennett Stirtz, a senior from Iowa, is another player projected to be selected in the middle of the first round. Stirtz served as the engine of Iowa's offense, averaging 37.7 minutes per game and earning All-Big Ten honors. He may not wow teams with elite explosiveness, leaping ability, or physical tools, but his advanced pick-and-roll feel and decision-making should translate well to the NBA. Ebuka Okorie, a freshman from Stanford, might be the biggest wild card of the group. He could hear his name called at No. 16, but there's also a chance he slides closer to Memphis' pick at No. 32. Okorie has a 6-8 wingspan, giving him intriguing physical tools despite his stature. His shot creation ability is a major strength, highlighted by averaging 23.2 points per game as a freshman. However, his playmaking carries more question marks than anyone else on this list.
