Keegan Murray News: Scores nine points in return

Murray (back) amassed nine points (3-9 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, two steals and one assist across 32 minutes during Friday's 101-100 loss to the Clippers.

Murray returned to the hardwood following a three-game absence due to a back injury, and though he didn't operate with any major minute restrictions, his statistical output was disappointing. The 39-42 Kings are locked in as one of the four teams in the Western Conference Play-In Tournament, but Sacramento will still need to beat the Suns on Sunday in order to secure the No. 9 seed and a home matchup with the 39-42 Mavericks. With that in mind, Murray should be in store for a normal minutes load in the regular-season finale.
