With Cedric Coward Making First Team All-Rookie, the Memphis Grizzlies have Officially Selected 8 All-Rookies in the Past 8 Drafts

All All-Rookie selections by year:

2019 - Jaren Jackson Jr (1st team)

2020 - Ja Morant (1st team and ROTY), Brandon Clarke (RIP, 1st team)

2021 - Desmond Bane (2nd team)

2024 - GG Jackson (2nd team)

2025 - Jaylen Wells (1st team), Zach Edey (1st team)

2026 - Cedric Coward (1st team)

Zach Kleiman continues to show that he is among the best talent evaluators in the league. Only 4 of the 8 players were lottery picks (Edey, Ja, JJJ, Coward). Thank you Portland. Hoping to post this again next year with Boozer and pick 16.  Source My post from last year

Who are the best playmakers/passers that could reasonably go in the lottery? This can be overall or relative to their position.

Basically what the title says. I feel like passing, IQ, and playmaking are widely underrated as skills and are super important for team success, especially in the playoffs. We’ve seen it with the Wolves for a while. Even team USA struggled with no real PG.

Everyone praises Boozer for this, but who else do you see as guys who can create for others or be smart with the ball?
