Scouting report

Backcourt analysis

Rated 61, Kris Murray is a deep-bench small forward whose value in Backcourt is roster cover rather than regular minutes.

His best fit is the Glue guy role, which does the defensive and rebounding work that never shows up as points. His defense (66), rebounding (66) and basketball IQ (60) are exactly what that role asks for, and the game rates the match as “Suits him”.

For a small forward, his standout attributes are rebounding (66) and defense (66), in the top 45% and 52% of small forwards respectively.

The trade-off is three-point (54), in the bottom 9% of small forwards — surround him with floor spacing so defenses cannot sag into the paint.

Plan his minutes around matchups and blowouts rather than a fixed nightly share. His stamina of 61 means his energy drains quickly, so watch the ENR column.

At 25 he is close to his ceiling of 63.

He earns $2.5M a season with a transfer value of $6.0M — expensive for what he delivers.
