Cameron Boozer. Darryn Peterson. Caleb Wilson. Once of those three players will most likely be the #3 pick in the 2026 NBA Draft for the Grizzlies. But who comes next for Memphis will matter - a LOT.

Ja Morant traded, multiple rookies, and an impact player made to win - all while maximizing future cap space? Sounds like a perfect draft night.

It should be academic if the Duke superstar is available at #3 overall. But if he's gone? The Grizzlies have got some thinking to do.
