I don’t think that a NPOY candidate will be likely for Iowa next year because we should have a more balanced offensive attack with Kris, Pat, Perkins, and Sandfort. Our second highest scorer last year was Bohannon at 11ppg after Keegan’s 23, and I could easily see this group’s top 4 going 16, 14, 12, 11ppg in whichever order. That would likely be awesome for the team, but probably not result in many individual accoladesIt’s in the realm of possibility that Iowa could have three different national player of the year finalists in a row.

Kris has that potential, for sure. And apparently he showed enough to get 2nd round attention this year so he knows what he needs to do to get to the top 10.Back to back lottery picks is a very real possibility.
Kris as NPOY, Keegan as NBA ROY and Clark as NWPOY is also possible.
I think your numbers are a little lowI have a hypothetical for everyone. Let's say Kris was right handed like his brother Keegan and decided to return to Iowa as has been decided. But Kenyon is a businessman and has a few tricks up his sleeve.
So Keegan goes #4 to the Kings, right, for a $6.6 million deal. But Kenyon has a plan. He decides to switch them and have Kris go to the Kings...and Keegan then comes back to Iowa as Kris. He is almost sure to win the NPOY and every other individual trophy...and likely lines up as the No. 1 pick...and signs a $9.7 million dollar deal. I mean...$3 million extra is $3 million.
How cool would that have been...I mean...you don't know where Kris goes next year right...will it be top 10-15? With Keegan coming back...you get #4 and likely #1. I'll bet Kenyon is thinking he should have forced Kris to be a right hander.
Don't they have the same DNA? How would you know? As I'm finishing this post, I realize I have way too much free time right now.

Someone call QAnon...how do we know that's Keegan torching the Summer League.Just an fyi...FYI....
Kris AND Keegan.... along with Kenyon are all left handed.
Those are per year numbers. There is a scale for rookies in the NBA...no negotiation...depending on where you are picked...this is the money.I think your numbers are a little low

You are correct. The WinOneThisCentury's numbers are outdated, most likely.
Keegan's base salary is $8M per year but if he plays well enough, it'll likely end up being around $8.75M.
Paulo's (#1 pick) base salary averages out to $12.5M.
So yes, your 6.6 and 9.7 are a bit low, even for yearly salaries.
If you look closely at them, you can tell them apart. Keegan is more developed in the shoulders, and upper arms, and his hips and back side are a little wider. Watch a good close up of him running away from you back up the floor. Its obvious...I have a hypothetical for everyone.

Sorry...when I googled it pulled up an old chart of the rookie payouts. Nice little bump from a few years ago. Good for Keegan...now buy your dad a new car.

I'm old...but it appears to me that Keegan shoots right handed.
Probably going to depend on if they see him as someone that can come in and play serious minutes now or not. Picking up even a rotational player/spot starter at the end of the first round would be good value.I think Kris’ age will push him out of the first round. I’m not saying it’s right or I agree with it, but it is a major factor in the NBA draft.
Kris and Keegan both golf left handed. I was taught to play sports right handed. I write, eat and throw left handed. I shoot, golf, bowl and bat right handed.I saw Keegan signing something left handed. I wonder if he plays golf left handed as well.

A little cheaper that way, especially in golf!Kris and Keegan both golf left handed. I was taught to play sports right handed. I write, eat and throw left handed. I shoot, golf, bowl and bat right handed.
Keagan winning RotY or just having a very good rookie season, would elevate Kris and negate any concerns about age.I think Kris’ age will push him out of the first round. I’m not saying it’s right or I agree with it, but it is a major factor in the NBA draft.
If Keegan and Kris have good years, I see Kris definitely going high in the first round. Just have to see it play out.Probably going to depend on if they see him as someone that can come in and play serious minutes now or not.

He is also the first player I know of who's draft position will be greatly effected by how his brother does.

19. Brooklyn Nets
Kris Murray | 6-8 wing | 22 years old | Iowa
Keegan’s brother, Kris should step into more of a primary role next season after being more of a big floor spacer in 2021-22 He averaged 10 points per game but shot 39 percent from 3 last season and played solid defensively at his size. He has the look of a very valuable role-playing wing. He’s not quite the shot creator Keegan is, so don’t expect nearly 25 points per game. But I do think Kris will emerge into a genuine prospect and set himself up nicely for a long career in the NBA.
I know, 22 is way past one's prime. lolI think Kris’ age will push him out of the first round. I’m not saying it’s right or I agree with it, but it is a major factor in the NBA draft.
Right. Nba players are playing longer than ever.I know, 22 is way past one's prime. lol
