Keegan Murray Will Prove Everyone Wrong

- Some people were left puzzled by the Keegan Murray pick by the Sacramento Kings in the 2022 NBA Draft, being selected at #4 over Jaden Ivey, who many believed the Kings would take.
Seeing Keegan Murray drafted over Ivey, while maybe not the pick with the highest upside, still projects to be a very smart pick for the Sacramento Kings. Murray showed a ton of promise at Iowa, and he's also very much NBA-ready from day one.
I love how Keegan is going to fit alongside De'Aaron Fox and Domantis Sabonis, and that core three for the Sacramento Kings could legitimately make a push for the playoffs this season.
Keegan Murray may not be the superstar upside that teams typically chase after with the 4th pick, but he's definitely not a bad pick by any means.

This guy reminds me of a mini Tim Duncan that shoots like Chris Middleton. He is gonna be good. Just what the Kings need right now they might have actually got it right this time.
They been getting it right in the last 3 draft and has gotten it right in 4 of the last 5 lottery picks they have had.
You high???
Khris*
Aged like fine wine. He's about to break the rookie record for most 3's in a season. While shooting over 40% from 3
I believe that Keegan Murray had one of the four most efficient seasons in the last decade in college basketball. The other three guys on the list are Zion Williamson, Anthony Davis, and Brandon Clarke. I know that college stats don't always translate. But that level of high usage combined with high efficiency, especially from a young player, typically indicates a great prospect.
He seemed like the best fit for them and now having a full season of the Sabonis/Fox duo, he should fit in well. Would definitely be interested in hearing your thoughts on how Ivey fits in with Detroit
That video is in the works!
Monte couldn’t have picked a better fitting prospect! Keegan is going to be a straight beast in the nba. He’s a modern day forward that is highly skilled, I’m glad we didn’t waste our 1st round pick on “ high ceiling potential” that potential never seems to pan out. Bagley being the most obvious example right. Keegan is nba ready and has high upside like he could be a perennial all-star. GO KINGS!!!
Keegan might not be flashy, but he’s one of the most composed players to come out of this draft. When the pressure hits, he doesn’t crack. He steps up and take on the big opportunity. If Murray is able to work on his weak spots of his game, in 4-5 years, hopefully still on the Kings, he’ll become an all-around threat. His game not being flashy is what makes him deadly
seems like a dude who would want to stay in sac if all goes well
He will be in the Hall of Fame. 😄😂
Yeah I think he's going to be better than Ivey and Jabari..
im finally happy being a kings fan since the webber days....its been awhile
Sabonis can teach him playmaker and postup
He should model his game after Larry Bird. He like Murray wasn't explosive but had really high IQ.. He should also study Durant
I believe his handle/ plamaking & lockdown defense will separate him from good to great . With that said if he plays the 4 the kings should target another Foward. Markennen , jjj , clarke, t.harris, kuminga
Idiot he's a small forward
Clarke seems like the only realistic option here
You clearly know nothing about basketball 😂 Keegan's playmaking is his only major weakness, and if he is a 4, then why would we go after one of those other 4's you listed here?
@@Whocares-z6v I'd say his handles are his biggest weakness but either works
@@Whocares-z6v his playmaking isn't his weakness, it's his handles.
I've been liking our draft pick more and more.
Haliburton and Keegan both great picks recently
@@Cuzjudd and Davion Mitchell. Monte is 3 for 3
@@luckylefty2405 I'm not completely sold on Davion, but hope he works out for you
@@Cuzjudd Davion didn't get much attention but when you look at the other prospects available Davion was by far the best pick at least from what he's shown so far.
@@Gablablin Easily take Moses Moody before him
Chris Middleton is a good comp. That said, the Kings are out of excuses. They have a great starting lineup.
I remember the time when Vancouver Grizzlies picked Steve Francis in 99 and he publicly announced his lack of desire to play for them. The Kings somehow did not want that and got the much better player in terms of fit and desire to play for them. Maybe less talented than Ivey but who knows?
I disagree....Keegan Murray is as talented as Ivey, if not better. He also is healthy...something Ivey is not
Ivey isn’t injury prone 😂 and it’s still way to early to know who is going to be better. I’ll judge in 3-4 years.
@@xguy9999 I saw Ivey go down a few times last college season. Bad hip?? Don't know, but looks like he already injured an ankle in the summer league.
@@kathy0698 Agreed.
Murray is a slow-footed, high IQ basketball player.
Ivey is an UBER athletic, average IQ player (at the moment).
BIG difference.
@@xguy9999 if you got hurt already transitioning to the speed of the NBA, it's not a good look. Those who got hurt before his NBA debut, they tend to be injury. He hasn't even played the full pace of the NBA and he already got hurt.
People like Hoops Reference, Bleacher Report, Sporting Logistically basically called Sacramento stupid for this choice. Now since Summer League, people been d**k riding this dude when he was actually the RIGHT choice for the Kings anyways...
The Kings had no choice to take Murray, cause
1.) Ivey didn't want to be there and
2.) If they would've drafted another guard, people would be bitching about, why did they draft another guard when they have. Mitchell, Fox and Divincenzo...
3.) They needed a three/four.
The only loss to me was that they could've traded back to get Murray and get more assets, creating leverage, but the issue is are teams willing to give up assets? Especially seeing teams giving up all of their ducks in a row for short term gain, and that might be crippling franchises future long term.
Multiple teams had Murray over ivey
Kings has Murray over Ivey regardless what Ivey said
No there is no way they could had traded down and still get Murray. Like I said multiple teams wanted Murray. Either the team they traded down with would have drafted Murray or Pistol ok bs drafts Murray if Ivey was taken 4th
Love how they're changing the narrative now
ROTY?
Hard to put that on him being the 3rd option on that kings squad .
Maybe. I wouldn't be surprised if he took a big step later into the season.
Yes it is his my bet for ROTY.
Thank you for this video. Keegan will be Rookie of the Year :)
He is the favorite to win rookie of the year, to prove everyone wrong he would need to suck at basketball.
He looks like a modern Antawn Jamison.
Antwan couldn’t shoot this good
I don't understand the Keegan hate predraft he would have went to Detroit if the Kings didn't pick him up. Solid player.
Giving you your flowers 💐. Great call
Who's here after Murray won Summer League MVP (although it would mean more of they played more games)?
He played enough for average to be legit.
I think he is what is making the kings much better than they were
Excellent video. Thank you for posting this!
So basically, Jaden Ivey, did a really smart thing for himself, and did Sacramento a huge favor by not wanting to play for them
Ivey was never the pick. Whatever he said or did didn't matter. Kings had Keegan on their board over Ivey. That's why other teams have came out and said they had Keegan over Ivey. Y'all who don't know basketball just followed the hype.
I like his game a lot. He’s a down hill post Scorer.
No, wtf. He isn't a downhill player. He is a catch and shoot play maker.
You earned that sub like the nail gun salesman in the wire! Great vid 🙏
going to be a killer
Keegan has to just fine tune a couple of things and then he’s set!
I understand people being upset about not picking ivey... but like aren't ivey and fox very similar in playstyle. Why would you want two of the same player on the same team.The kings picked to fit their team needs and not the best player available which I don't understand how people cant see.
They also just got Davion Mitchell last year and Ivey didnt want to be picked by the kings.
Two different philosophies I guess. The Kings for almost a decade drafted based on team need and they never got any stars so a lot of fans just want them to keep taking the best player available, regardless of fit, like the did with Davion last year. Now with Murray, it seems they went back to team need. I am liking the squad that is coming together
@@Randsel I really think keegan was the best player available. Ivey has more super star potential but there is absolutely no guarantee he gets there. And there's no way around it... Fox and ivey would not thrive together. That means you have to trade one of them, which you're gambling on thr fact that one or both of them can increase their value throughout the season, which might not happen if they play alongside each other. Would be a huge and really unnecessary risk imo.
Picking for team need, got them Bagley and not Luka. Do I need to say more?
@@bdbd1390 that was the old gm though. And that gm legit thought bagley was better... and think had some issues with Luka on a personal level. Surely Luka didn't want to be here
Prophetic. Murray may be the best off ball shooter in NBA Rookie history. He's not moving as much as he could, because Huerter is getting so much of the action moving without the basketball. But Murray is already really similar to Huerter without the basketball.
In fact, in the three games Huerter just missed, Murray was 5-10, 6-14 and 3-10 from deep, for a combined 14-34 (.411) in three games. His season average is (.407) on 6 attempts. In other words, he doubled his volume but still maintained his plus 40% efficiency.
Indicating that if Huerter weren't on the team Murray wouldn't be taking 6 longballs a game and making 2.5, he'd be averaging 10+ attemps and be nailing 4 or 5 a game. No wonder he's about to smash the all-time Rookie record for deep splashes.
Great Video! Just subbed. This is a sick channel
Iowa has one of the worst defensive schemes of all of college basketball. He should be able to figure that end out
What was they defensive scheme?
Great vid. Thanks for creating this.
holy w
he was most nba ready his floor was guaranteed to be good
ROY
Watching this 2 years later and at this stage it's correct.
the fit is much butter than ivey would have been
Lord this aged well
Great video
Otto Porter with some post skill 👌🏿
Lol they were simply dumb. Don’t build your team around two 6’3 guards
Two 6'3 guards that both do the same thing
Ángelito these people ain’t watch Dame/cj all these years.

Great prospect in a bad organization.
That was GSW for twenty plus years, until 11 seasons ago
First
Are you gonna post basketball content Noah terranova on Keegan Murray.
Are you gonna post basketball content again like jabari Smith or paolo banchero and Keegan Murray and what your expectations for their rookie years and career.
I don’t see it. I feel like this is who he is and will be. Nothing wrong with that, he is NBA ready. I see him being a solid starter/good bench player. Won’t average more than 12
So, how are the Sacramento Kings going to ruin his career?
Dry
I feel horrible for every player who gets drafted or traded to the Kings. Their ownership and management have zero understanding on how to build a culture nor have any desire to build a winning organization. Just another group of billionaire businessmen that uses a sports team for a massive corporate tax write off
Common sense…
