Former Iowa star Kris Murray is expected to be a late first round pick in Thursday night’s NBA Draft at the Barclay’s Center in Brooklyn.
Murray averaged better than 20 points and nearly eight rebounds for the Hawkeyes as a junior before deciding to skip his senior season. He has been working on all aspects of his game to get ready.
Murray says watching twin brother Keegan’s rookie season in Sacramento has helped him through the process.
Murray says his workouts have been designed to prepare him for the grind of an NBA season.
Murray will watch the draft with his family at an Iowa City hotel.
