www.nbcsports.comHere are the latest publicly reported updates on Kris Murray’s stats and status.
- Recent performance notes: Kris Murray has posted several double-digit scoring outings in the 2025-26 season, including a 16-point game with 5 rebounds and 5 assists in a Blazers win, signaling he's been a fringe rotation option with occasional expanded minutes when teammates are unavailable. This aligns with typical role-player usage for him when healthy.[2][4]
- Health and availability: He has been listed as questionable or limited at times due to injuries (e.g., back/Lumbar strain) and illnesses, but has also been cleared to play for recent games, indicating a fluctuating but improving status as the season progressed.[4][5]
- Season totals context: Throughout the season, his per-game numbers have hovered around mid-teens in minutes when active, with approximately low-to-mid single-digit points per game and a mix of rebounds/assists depending on role and matchup. When pressed into more run (e.g., due to absences on the roster), his scoring pace has spiked modestly, showing potential in suitable rotations.[3][7][2][4]
Illustrative example
- In a recent 134-99 win over the Nets, he contributed 16 points on efficient shooting (6-9 FG, 2-4 3PT) with 5 rebounds and 5 assists in 30 minutes, a season-high-like performance that underscored his upside when given minutes.[2]
