It doesn't hurt the Cats one bit that Murray has the ability to play both guard positions.

ESPN recruiting director Paul Biancardi is a big fan of Kentucky freshman guard Jamal Murray.

“I had a chance to call the Nike Hoop Summit where he was the leading scorer,” said Biancardi. “He put on a tremendous display of scoring and really showed what kind of point guard ability he had.”

But Biancard says he can also do a lot more.

“He can really get his own shot and he can make those shots,” Biancardi said. “I think he is also far more athletic than many people realize and know about. He’s really like a pure combo guard. But when you are the leading scorer at the Nike Hoop Summit, that says a lot about your game.”

Biancardi thinks it took Murray some time to adjust to playing with talented 7-foot Thon Maker last year when he switched to Orangeville Prep.

“It just took time for him to adjust. That was a different situation,” Biancardi said. “But he just got better and better and now I think we all really expect him to have a great freshman season.]
