All-Star
With a slower first step and at 22-23 way less off the ball playmaking abilities. Which for a star wing is a death sentence, not terrible for a stretch 4 though. I do think Murray will be a much better post player than Barnes is and will settle down on his finesse finishing over defenders. I'm glad they are starting to get him back down on the block after completely ignoring it from summer league to now.
It's why, I've always felt that his value as an elite or non-elite player would come down to whether he could defend the 5. Otherwise, you bank on the high floor, the work ethic, and settle for the good shooting, non-play making 4/3 that you drafted a few ticks higher than where he should've been drafted.
