Murray closed Sunday's 121-82 loss to the Kings with nine points (3-15 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 18 rebounds, one block and one steal across 44 minutes.
Murray was the only recent starter to play in the season finale, and he set a career high with 18 rebounds in the blowout loss. the Iowa product may not have had many opportunities to impress during his rookie season, but Portland's bevy of injuries throughout 2023-24 allowed the first-round pick to strut his stuff. There's little doubt he'll play a major role in Portland's continuing youth rebuild.
