Breaking down the game of Richie Saunders, one of the best movement shooters in the Draft.

Standing 6’5″, Saunders has an NBA frame for a shooting guard and great lift on his release. He’s among the best at flowing off screens into his jumper. Saunders scored 18 PPG and shot 49% FG/38% 3PT on volume (12.7 FGA; 6.8 3PA) in 25 games before his senior season was cut short due to injury. His quick-twitch shooting and ability to relocate intelligently should translate to the NBA. He also brings a physical and hard-nosed approach on both ends.
