BYU’s high-efficiency, two-way glue guard with pro upside
Saunders is a polished, high-IQ wing/guard who was described by BYU coach Kevin Young as the program’s “heart and soul,” and that shows up in his efficiency, toughness, and impact beyond scoring. In the 2023-24 season, he averaged 12.1 points while shooting 50.2% from the field and 38.7% from three, and scouting reports note his jump to 16.5 points per game as BYU’s leading scorer in his junior year. He also brings defensive value and experience, with 205 career threes and 133 career steals, making him a strong fit for teams needing a mature, versatile connector who competes every possession.[1][2][4][8]
