There’s 6 minutes of film alone of him effectively defending Donovan Mitchell. As a Kings fan who isn’t used to seeing defense, watching your PF defending one of the best offensive guards in the game was quite a sight.
He has a lot of likable qualities. But the thing i like the most about him isn’t his shooting, but his work ethics. He is constantly wanting to learn and improve. We can see that during the summer league. He still chose to go out and play instead of going on vacations like everyone else. It’s just a matter of time before he becomes an all star player. That said,
Keegan Murray!
Unfortunately currently no one is liking his shooting, considering he’s at 29.6% from 3pt while taking 8.1 3pts a game.
Now if he can remember how to shoot a 3 again, he’s set for an awesome season.
he always had the tools iowa’s style was just fuck defense. (which his hilarious because their football team is fuck offense)
You know these guys are giving each other defensive tips, reactionary tips, etc and they have arguably one of the best young perimeter defenders in recent years in Davion Mitchell on this squad to practice with and against everyday. I bet it raises the floor of all their perimeter guys big time. I see a lot of Davion-style chest-ups when jumping the screen and its very pretty to watch.
I love players who have defensive pride. I thought that was going to be Mitchell for us but he turned out to be fool’s gold.
Lotta good defense here, but my overall take away is “wow, what long arms.”
Is the frame rate on this video a little weird?
