Kris Murray shot 2-of-6 from the field and 0-of-2 from the foul line in Wednesday’s loss to the Nuggets, accounting for six points, three rebounds, three assists, two steals, and two three-pointers in 20 minutes.
Murray returned to action after sitting out Monday’s loss to the Nuggets with a left quad contusion, and he did so as a starter due to Jerami Grant being out. Unfortunately, the second-year forward did not provide much value outside of the assists and steals. Portland is done until after the All-Star break, so there’s no need to add Murray now. However, he’s one of the young players who may have added value during the “silly season.”
