Julius Thedford brings scoring punch and versatile guard toughness to Memphis
Thedford looks like a useful Memphis fit because he has already shown he can score in bursts, rebound well for a guard, and chip in across the box score, with Western Kentucky naming him CUSA Freshman of the Week in 2024 and later reporting him as a productive multi-category contributor in 2025. At 6-foot-4 and from Memphis, he offers local familiarity, guard size, and a competitive edge that fits a program looking for backcourt depth and secondary creation; the main question is consistency, but the two-way flashes and scoring instincts make him a credible rotation piece.
