Kevin Murphy - G - Jazz

Kevin Murphy did not practice on Tuesday due to a skin infection.

That does not sound pleasant, but the Jazz are listing him as day-to-day. His last blurb came on January 8 when he was recalled from the D-League, so this news shouldn't impact any fantasy leagues.

Jazz recalled G Kevin Murphy from the D-League.

After six weeks in the minors, Murphy is back. He'll provide some depth with Mo Williams (thumb) out a couple months and Marvin Williams (knee) out at least three games.

Kevin Murphy - G - Jazz

Kevin Murphy has been assigned to the D-League.

"We don't want him to be a pig scorer," GM Dennis Lindsey said. Earl Watson back in action along with the Jazz being banged up may also have something to do with the demotion. Murphy needs minutes and wasn't getting them in Utah.

Kevin Murphy will return to the Jazz after his wife gave birth to a baby.

Jazz sign second-round pick G Kevin Murphy.

Murphy is a natural scorer but as a second-round pick, will simply be trying to make the opening-day roster for the Jazz.

Kevin Murphy is "close" to signing with the Jazz.

GM Dennis Lindsey said that the contract isn't quite done, but it sounds like the two sides should have an agreement in the near future. He's a scorer, but it would be a surprise to see him wind up on the fantasy radar in his rookie season.

There is "nothing new or imminent" between the Jazz and second-round pick Kevin Murphy.

Murphy and the team had reportedly "made progress" on contract talks, and it would be really surprising if the two sides can't agree to terms in the near future.

Kevin Murphy - G - Jazz

The Jazz "have made progress" on contract talks with second-round pick Kevin Murphy.

Signing Murphy would bring the roster up to 15, and despite his solid size at the 2-guard position and the general belief that he'll wind up making the team, he's not going to be on the fantasy radar.

Kevin Murphy - G - Jazz

The Jazz used their only pick in the draft (47th) on Tennessee Tech SG Kevin Murphy.

The 6'7" 2-guard once scored 50 points in a college game and has solid offensive skills. The Jazz could use some shooting and scoring punch, and we're thinking Murphy has a very good chance of making the team. But he'll need to add some bulk and muscle to his frame to make it in the NBA.
