After last night you best believe KeeMu is a beast.

[Karate Diop]

Keegan Mitchell Murray aka Key2TheCity aka KeeMu has low key been flying under the radar this year, but after last night's heater mans is undeniably ON ONE.

While KeeMu has started slow and seen his efficiency temporarily drop as he adjusts to a larger role this year, he's breaking through in other areas such as defense, scorchability, and clutchness, and if his December is any indication of the future (53.3% FG, 50.0% 3PT, 19.7 PPG) WATCH OUT.

Mans checks all the boxes when it comes to winning. The Kings 'Chise got some flack for this pick a year ago, but looks like they're getting the last laugh.

I mean check it:

I mean, anyone paying attention can see he was a baller.
He came out playing wiht thier summer league team beating teams like they broke in his house and stole something.
He wanted to showoff his improvements and ya no surprise.

[Swish1906]

No, he need some more stupid nicknames to be a beast

[CIN-C-STAR]

No, he need some more stupid nicknames to be a beast

Keegan MurSpray do anything for ya?

I'm good at stupid nicknames

[GreatWhiteStiff]

No, he need some more stupid nicknames to be killing it for your 'chise

FYP

[Pattycakes]

I bet hed have less than 17.5 pts last night in a parlay. Joke was on me

[Pelon chingon]

He's being asked to expand his game by coaches he can be even more efficient.

[SNPA]

KeeMu is bad.

Keegan “Smooth Operator” Murray is good.

[turnaroundJ]

terrible thread title lol.

he's been solid though. always knew he was a better pick than ivey. that would've been terrible. he was an "old" rookie but late growth spurt guys usually turn out well.

[theFireBlanket]

Too close to Chemo .imo

[510TWSS]

KeeMu? lmao just forgot about whatever it is he did last night. thank you did that op

[SNPA]

The record is 14 in a game. Smooth Operator will break that several times in his career. Nothing that happened last night was surprising to Kings fans, he is that good.

[OxAndFox]

KeeMu? WTF?
His nickname is Uncle Keegs

I don’t know if he’s eligible this early in his career, but just call him by his first name. No other NBA Keegan’s.

Btw, love the guy!

And it suits him perfectly. Just a bland guy (I mean that in a nice way). He is so much like TD in terms of demeanor etc it's not funny.

[CIN-C-STAR]

If you guys want a non-stupid nickname, 3gan Murray is right there

[Infinite Llamas]

Can always tell a Diop thread without even clicking lol

[KingFox]

It's the two-way potential that REALLY intrigues me more than anything. Before his back issues (minor) he'd shown that leap immediately. Now, Keegan is at it again in just year 2:

lol, came here to say the same.

Anyway, I have to give props to Karate Diop.
He often opens threads about under the radar guys - it's much better than yet another GOAT/best ever/MVP/hot take thread.
We're at the end of page 1 and so far there are zero "he sucks"/"my guy is better" responses and already a few nice videos/analysis posts, I like it.

Kudos, Karate Diop, or, if you allow, KD-op
