Murray shot 34% on three-pointers last season, often leading the team in volume from deep, and was a very efficient scorer on the interior (60% on two-pointers in Big Ten conference play) as well. Murray also improved his free-throw shooting from 65% to 73% year-over-year, and that can be the difference between being on the floor at the end of a game or not.

That combination of size, shooting and defense means Murray can spread the floor and open up space for elite creators like Damian Lillard and Scoot Henderson without sacrificing size in defensive matchups. If Kris can be as reliable as Keegan on catch-and-shoot opportunities, his spot in the Portland rotation should be well within reach.
