As expected, Murray came off the bench after drawing the start in Saturday’s
exhibition opener. The second-year guard struggled from in front of the arc for
the second time in as many exhibitions and is now just 2-for-13 from that
distance over the first pair of preseason contests. Murray did log just two
fewer minutes than starter Emmanuel Mudiay, and if head coach Mike Malone holds
true to his word, both will continue to alternate first-team opportunities
throughout the exhibition slate as part of their competition for starting point
guard duties.
