The Kings Aren't Fixing What Isn't Broken

It might have been a mere NBA Summer League game Wednesday, but there 22-year-old Keegan Murray was, first hitting a contested pull-up jumper from midrange to start the contest, then showing his full arsenal shortly after that.

There was the authoritative block at the rim he rotated over to make a minute or two later, then the corner triple he drilled shortly after. There was the footwork, and the stepback three he put down over Heat rookie Jaime Jaquez Jr. There was the free-throw line jumper he lofted over not just one or two but three defenders, and still managed to knock down like a practice shot.
