Raptors' Collin Murray-Boyles is the latest gem from NBA's outstanding rookie class

TORONTO — Collin Murray-Boyles either didn’t hear the conversation or didn’t care. Given how he carries himself, both are equally plausible.RJ Barrett and Jamal Shead, Murray-Boyles’ teammates, were talking about the rookie’s unusual sturdiness for a first-year player. You know how “Once he gets stronger…” leads most projections about a prospect’s potential? Well, that doesn’t apply to Murray-Boyles, who, listed at 6-foot-7 and 245 pounds, is not getting any help from the league’s trusted measurement monitors.Advertisement
