2019 NBA Draft: OKC takes Brandon Clarke with No. 21 pick, trades to Memphis

The Oklahoma City Thunder chose Gonzaga Bulldogs junior forward Brandon Clarke with the No. 21 pick of the 2019 NBA Draft and traded him to the Memphis Grizzlies.

Although he only played in a Gonzaga uniform for one season, Clarke made a huge impact on both ends of the court. He was arguably the best player in college basketball this season not named Zion Williamson.

Clarke averaged 16.9 points, 8.6 rebounds, and 3.2 blocks per game. His athleticism and elite defending made him a regular occurrence on the highlight reel.
