What changed
TS%-6.4 ptsProbably real
Murphy III's TS% is down 6.4 points over his last 25 games of the season (57.3% vs 63.8%). Most of it is shot-making: his TS% was 0.7 points below what his shot spots predict (4.1 points above before), after Dejounte Murray joined the rotation. Probably real: about 70% should hold.
