Lottery-projected guard Keegan Murray confirms Thunder workout

During his media availability on Thursday, former Iowa guard Keegan Murray confirmed that he has met and worked out for the Oklahoma City Thunder in a pre-draft visit.

“With what they have and the draft picks they have, there’s a lot of things to look forward to with (Josh) Giddey and Isaiah Roby,” said Murray. “They’re a team built for the future… That would be a really cool experience.”

Murray will likely be a top-10 pick, so unless the Thunder trade back up within that range, the team will likely not get a chance to grab him as No. 2 would be too rich for him.

Murray spent two seasons at Iowa, where the 21-year-old averaged 23.5 points, 8.7 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 35 games during his final season.

The 2022 NBA draft will be held on June 23.
