Has anyone seen Kris Murray

I read on here Kenyon Murray say he tried to get Kris to use the right hand. Apparently all 3 of them are lefties. Keegan took dad's advice and Kris didn't. I noticed on one drive and layup from the right side, he still used the left hand which made it easier to block (it wasn't tho), whereas using the right hand gets the ball farther from the basket and away from the defender.

In my hometown program we were told in elementary school we wouldn't ever play varsity if we couldn't dribble with both hands and hit a left handed layup if right handed and vice versa. They weren't kidding. That doesn't apply at Iowa evidently, lots of players only use their dominant hand regardless of where they are on floor

I thought dribbling with both hands is a double dribble turnover?

LOL sorry i couldn't help myself

I get it when youre young, but hes 22 and still wont even attempt a right handed shot. Pretty crazy
 
Weezy and Gatens were also a players that could only use their dominant hands to finish and it really limited
their dribble drive games. Keegan was ambidextrous around the basket. Kris not having that in his
game is the biggest difference between the two.

I think when he signs his pro contract he’ll be fine. It’s not the 1970’s.
 
Oh you mean the kid that averaged 20+ points a game and was 1st team all big ten?

We had another kid that could only use one hand and drive one direction when he played for Iowa. Guy that led the Big Ten in scoring and assists named Andre Woolridge. Both were all timers here at Iowa. No idea why the hate.

The feeble minded equate any kind of critical analysis with "hate."
