Kris's combine measurements came in and since he and Keegan are identical twins, you'd think we'd finally have a pretty good sense of Keegan's measurements now but even back in their Iowa days, it always felt like Keegan was a bit longer and bigger than his brother so who knows?
(Also did not expect the Murray twins to have a bigger wingspan than Paul George.)
If Keegan is around these numbers, he has solid PF size. Maybe he can be our ideal PF fit next to Sabonis. He definitely needs another couple years to add his “grown man strength,” but after he’s done that, his length should be able to compete at the PF spot.
In college, he showed ideal skills to put next to Sabonis (which was a huge reason why I wanted him):
- We already know about his shooting, but he may be one of the best (if not the best) shooters in the game at the PF spot
- He averaged 2.4 BLK per 40 minutes in college (88th among all players and 24th among all PFs)
- He averaged 10.9 REB per 40 min in college (156th among all players and 43rd among all PFs)
- He was a very effective/efficient post player in college (might have more opportunities doing this if he’s playing the 4 vs. the 3)
