Keegan Murray

Keegan Murray is a power forward who plays for the Sacramento Kings. In the 2022 NBA Draft, the Kings selected Murray with the fourth overall pick. Little did they know that they were drafting a potential franchise player who would make an immediate impact.

Prior to the NBA, Murray, a product of the University of Iowa, had already displayed his offensive skills and leadership qualities during his illustrious college career, leading the Hawkeyes to a Big Ten men's basketball tournament championship in 2022 and being the tournament’s most outstanding player.

Murray’s versatility as a power forward set him apart as one of the best young players in the NBA. One of his standout qualities is his ability to handle the ball effectively without succumbing to turnovers. Murray's fundamentally strong post-up play and smooth jumpers have garnered the attention of fans and analysts.

However, it is Murray's ability to knock down shots from beyond the arc that truly made him a fan-favorite. In the 2022/23 NBA season, Murray hit an astonishing 206 3-pointers, breaking Donovan Mitchell's record (187 threes) for the most 3-pointers made in a season by a rookie in NBA history. Just one NBA season in, Keegan has already solidified his place in NBA history.

As a testament to his outstanding debut season, Keegan Murray was rightfully selected to the All-Rookie First Team. In the 2022/23 NBA season, Murray averaged 12.2 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 1.2 assists per game. It's safe to say that the Sacramento Kings made a wise choice in selecting Murray, as he looks poised to be a key player for years to come.
