Murray had three points (1-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one steal in 19 minutes during Monday's 115-112 loss to Orlando.

EDGE Analysis

Murray's role backing up Toumani Camara is established, as he has logged at least 18 minutes in every game he's played so far, but his production has been inconsistent, leading to season averages of 5.2 points, 2.6 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.2 blocks. Murray has been an integral piece to making Portland's defense among one of the best this season, but he needs to step it up on the offensive end, as he has been shooting a measly 21.4 percent from the three-point line and 66.7 percent from the free-throw line.

EDGE Analysis

After missing Wednesday's game against the Jazz due to an illness, Murray will get back on the floor. The Iowa product is averaging 5.5 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.3 steals per game, shooting 52.9 percent from the field and 33.3 percent from beyond the arc.

Murray (illness) won't play in Wednesday's game against the Jazz.

EDGE Analysis

Murray was a late addition to the injury report Wednesday morning due to illness, and he'll sit out the contest. The third-year wing has averaged 5.5 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.3 steals across 21.8 minutes per game in 2025-26. His absence should open up more minutes for Matisse Thybulle and Rayan Rupert. His next chance to play will come Friday against Denver

Murray (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Jazz.

EDGE Analysis

Murray wasn't on the initial injury report, but presumably, he woke up under the weather. Murray has averaged 21.7 minutes per game through four games, and if he's unable to play, the Trail Blazers could use a committee approach to soak up his minutes.

The Trail Blazers exercised the 2026-27 team option on Murray's contract Tuesday, Joe Freeman of The Oregonian reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 2023 first-rounder may not have a significant role on tap for the start of the 2025-26 season, but Portland values the versatility he offers as a depth option. Murray averaged 4.2 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 15.1 minutes per game over 69 regular-season appearances in 2024-25.

Murray tallied 12 points (4-5 FG, 2-2 FT, 2-3 3Pt), four rebounds and an assist over 19 minutes in Wednesday's 129-123 preseason loss to the Warriors.

EDGE Analysis

Murray returns to the Trail Blazers after his first-round selection by the team two years ago. The 25-year-old Iowa product endured a dip in minutes during his sophomore campaign, and the acquisition of Deni Avdija clouded his outlook with the team. His youth falls in line with Portland's game plan, but the wealth of talent ahead of him on the depth chart significantly reduces his fantasy viability.

Murray provided 10 points (4-15 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 11 rebounds, three assists and one block in 30 minutes during Sunday's 109-81 victory over the Lakers.

EDGE Analysis

Other than a handful of spot starts in 2024-25, Murray didn't present very much appeal. However, he did record his first double-double of the campaign Sunday. Murray averaged 7.0 points, 5.8 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.7 steals in 28.9 minutes over his six outings as a starter this season, but he shot a dreadful 32.7 percent from the floor as a member of the first unit.

Murray is in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Warriors, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports.

EDGE Analysis

Murray will replace Shaedon Sharpe (knee) in the starting lineup. The second-year forward has logged at least 20 minutes in each of his last three appearances off the bench and should be in line for a sizable uptick in workload in a starting role.

Murray supplied 18 points (7-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one steal in 33 minutes during Sunday's 120-109 win over the Spurs.

EDGE Analysis

Murray played a significant role Sunday, pouring in a season-high 18 points. He has now played at least 27 minutes in two straight games, an indication that he could end the season as a prominent part of the rotation. With that said, prior to his last two games, Murray had failed to score in six straight contests.

Murray won't start Sunday's game against the Celtics.

EDGE Analysis

Murray drew a spot start Friday against the Nuggets, a game Portland surprisingly won in blowout fashion. However, with Donovan Clingan back in action, Murray will shift to a reserve role. He hasn't played more than 18 minutes in any of his last seven appearances off the bench.
