ANALYSIS: At 6-foot-8 with a 6-foot-11 wingspan, Keegan Murray has a high motor and does a lot of the "little things" that contribute to winning, and he is a terrific defender. Despite shooting an inefficient 29.6% from deep during his freshman season, he shot 39.8% this past season and scored an impressive 23.5 points per game. In addition, his ability to attack closeouts and score from multiple levels has allowed him to carry a more significant offensive load. As a result, Murray was a candidate for National Player of the Year and has become one of the highest-rated prospects in the 2022 NBA Draft.
