Kings fans got to hear from rookie first-round draft pick Keegan Murray for the first time Saturday when the team held an introductory news conference for him inside the grand entrance at Golden 1 Center.
It was easy to see what the Kings saw in Murray, who hit all the right notes and checked all the right boxes following a whirlwind 48 hours that brought him to Sacramento as the No. 4 pick in the NBA draft.
“I’m excited to be here in Sacramento,” Murray said. “It’s a dream come true to be able to put on the purple and black, so I’m grateful to be in this position. Sacramento has welcomed me with open arms so far, so I’m excited to see everyone at the games and things like that. For me, it’s been a journey from where I came from to where I am now, so this is just the first step in my journey and I’m forever grateful to be in Sacramento.”
