“Keegan Murray is a star. He is one of the best players I have seen in this league in some time. After spending time watching him on film, seeing him in person, watching him warm up… he seems like a hell of a kid. His dad was a hell of a guy. Keegan is something special.”
Tom Izzo, Michigan State Head Coach (2/22/22)🗣 “Keegan Murray is as complete a basketball player that you are ever going to see.” – @JayBilas @WoodenAward x @NaismithTrophy x @Hoophall pic.twitter.com/ym8KaBFToe

Business as usual for potential top-10 pick Keegan Murray: 35 PTS on 21 shots, 8 REBS, 3 BLK while splashing 5 of 6 triples. Doesn’t say a whole lot or show much emotion but his productivity speaks for itself. Always around the ball. Release looks quicker than a year ago. Stud. pic.twitter.com/nXAAcUsvhY

There was no passing of the torch from Luka Garza to Keegan Murray.
It wasn’t needed.
Murray was ready to be The Man for @IowaHoops, which he’s proven all season.
