When matched up against smaller defenders, he took full advantage of the mismatch, bullying his way to the basket and powering through contact for scores.

His combination of toughness, physicality, rebounding, and relentless effort makes him a difficult matchup and a player who consistently finds ways to impact winning.      Basic found a plethora of ways to put the ball in the basket and consistently put pressure on the defense whenever he was on the attack.

Murray is a crafty guard who possesses an excellent feel for the game and consistently demonstrates a great pulse for finding teammates in a variety of spots on the floor. His vision and passing ability stand out, particularly his willingness and ability to deliver bounce passes in traffic and within the flow of the offense. Murray also showed that he can create offense for himself when needed. He is capable of scoring off the bounce and does a good job utilizing ball screens in the half-court to get to his spots, collapse the defense, and make plays. His patience coming off screens and understanding of how to manipulate defenders help him consistently put pressure on opposing defenses. He is pesky on that end of the floor, using active hands and strong anticipation to come up with steals.

He also displayed good awareness as a passer, feeding the post effectively when operating on the perimeter and making the extra play when opportunities presented themselves.
