Undrafted Auburn Center Eyes NBA Shot

KeShawn Murphy, the undrafted Auburn center, is taking his shot at the NBA after signing a Summer League deal with the Washington Wizards — becoming the second Auburn player this summer to earn such an opportunity. Despite playing just one season at Auburn, where he was a starting leader, Murphy dominated at Mississippi State, averaging over 11 points and 7 rebounds per game in his standout 2024-25 season. His decision to skip the NIT to focus on pro ball paid off — now he’s got a platform to prove himself in the NBA’s toughest proving ground. Can he make the leap? Summer League is his moment to shine.
