Keegan Murray posts 16 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists against Portland

Keegan Murray posted 16 points, seven rebounds, four assists, two steals and two threes on 7-for-14 shooting in 40 minutes as a starter Friday, November 13, when Sacramento lost to Portland 120-107.

The line exceeds his last season averages of 14.3 points, 5.7 boards and 1.5 assists over 22 games, but his 43.3% true shooting this season drags down his value in nine-category leagues and limits him to 21.7 projected fantasy points per game in default points scoring. He ranks 163rd overall with negative nine-category value.

Keegan Murray

Murray logged a season-high 40 minutes and reached double figures for the third time in five outings, adding clean shooting percentages and zero turnovers. His usage rate sits at just 18.4%, limiting his scoring ceiling even when the minutes are there. He has started three of five games this season but averages 28.2 minutes, well below his 34.3 per game last season.

The forward is averaging 10.2 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.6 assists through five games with 43.3% true shooting. Sacramento have no games left this week and none next week, so there is no streaming window. Murray remains a hold in deeper formats but offers limited upside until his efficiency improves and his role stabilises.

What to do

• Hold Keegan Murray in deeper leagues but do not expect significant category contributions while his true shooting remains at 43.3%.

• Do not start Murray in weekly lineups, as Sacramento have no games left this week and none next week.

• Monitor his minutes and starting role when the schedule resumes, but his 18.4% usage rate limits his ceiling even in expanded opportunities.
