Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary

After averaging just 13.7 minutes per game through Kansas's first 15 contests this season, injuries and a need for more shooting yielded an opportunity for Furphy to step into a starter's workload, and the freshman capitalized. He proceeded to average 11.8 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.1 steals while knocking down 35.4 percent of 4.4 three-point attempts per game in 32.7 minutes of action across the Jayhawks' final 18 games of the season. Overall, three-point attempts accounted for 61.2 percent of his shots, but Furphy was excellent in a limited sample at the rim as well, knocking down 74.2 percent of 66 attempts around the basket - ranking in the 96th percentile nationwide. The Melbourne, Australia native isn't shifty, so he relies on off-ball movement to create some of his advantages getting downhill, but his nearly 6-foot-7 size and smooth finishing with both hands helps offset his lack of pop athletically. Murphy knocked down 36.4 percent of 118 catch-and-shoot threes, although he has yet to display any success as a movement shooter. The limited nature of Furphy's self-creation caps his upside at this juncture, as 70.0 percent of his twos and 97.1 percent of his threes were assisted by teammates. This aligns with the lack of athletic advantage creation and 4-for-27 shooting in the midrange. Still, pedigree shooting in a 6-foot-7 frame is a commodity, with Trey Murphy and Sam Hauser representing examples. Hauser is the better comparison given Murphy's track record as a versatile defender and above-the-rim athlete, but Furphy becoming a team defender in the same vein as Hauser is a fair trajectory.

Practices fully Friday

October 4, 2024
Furphy (ankle) was active during Friday's practice, Tony East of SI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Furphy was back in the mix Friday, and he ran with the second unit of T.J. McConnell, Ben Sheppard, Bennedict Mathurin and Obi Toppin -- Isaiah Jackson (undisclosed) was a limited participant. Furphy will likely struggle to find consistent minutes on the wing surrounded by a plethora of young talent; however, the 19-year-old's return to full-on practice bodes well for his opportunity to impress during the preseason.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Suns might look at him
FFree Agent
June 13, 2024
Furphy could be one of the options the Suns might target with their first-round pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, Gerald Bourguet of PHNX Sports speculates.
ANALYSIS
The Suns hold the 22nd pick in the 2024 NBA Draft and will be looking to add depth to their roster, as Devin Booker, Bradley Beal, Kevin Durant and Jusuf Nurkic are pretty much penciled into their starting five for 2024-25. Furphy is a 19-year-old prospect who spent his lone college year with Kansas. The 19-year-old wing from Australia averaged 9.0 points, 4.9 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 0.9 steals in 24.1 minutes per game while shooting 46.6 percent from the floor for the Jayhawks. He projects to be a late first-round pick.
