In a process which had Iowa Hawkeye fans waiting until the last possible day, Kris Murray announced his return to Iowa City earlier this afternoon.
For Kris, he becomes the de facto fill-in for twin Keegan as a starter and will likely have lofty outside expectations because of the jump his brother made between his freshman and sophomore seasons. Anybody expecting a beat-for-beat repeat of Keegan’s 2021-22 season, should receive a stern talking to but it’s well within the range of possibilities to see Kris’ points-per-game double as his minutes (6th on the team) & usage (2nd - $) increase.
