"Murray-Boyles' performance at Summer League was a mixed bag per the box score, with some very high high's and some mediocre low's, but he immediately performed as one of the two best defenders on the roster (Mogbo was the only one giving him competition there) and displayed the overall floor game that high-impact players always do."
"My physical presence. That's something that I feel puts me ahead of a lot of defenders. My willingness to defend, that's my #1 thing. That's what gets me going in games. That's what gets my team going - when I'm playing defense. And that's something that I know my team needs from me. So, they'll (Raptors) be getting a hard player and a hard worker for sure."
Collin Murray-Boyles was selected ninth overall by the Toronto Raptors as a sophomore forward from South Carolina. Measurables list him at 6'6.5" with a 7'0.75" wingspan, 8'10" standing reach, and 239 lbs. College production included 16.8 points, 8.3 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 1.5 steals, and 1.3 blocks per game with shooting splits of .586/.265/.707 and 63% TS. Strengths include physical presence, willingness and ability to defend, a unique frontcourt driving game, and soft touch near the rim. Summer League showed mixed box-score results but confirmed him as one of the roster's top defenders and a floor-savvy player; NBA fit still requires evaluation.
