He played college basketball for the Minnesota Golden Gophers. He is the all-time Golden Gopher career rebound and career double-double leader. He ranks second in Big Ten Conference history (to Jerry Lucas) in career rebounds. Following his college career he has had multiple stints with teams in the NBA G League and multiple stints with the Leones de Ponce of the Baloncesto Superior Nacional.

High school career[edit]

Murphy led his middle school to a 75-0 record.[1] There was preseason speculation that he might start as a freshman who was at least 6 ft 4 in (1.93 m) for Central Catholic Marianist High School in November 2011.[2] However, that December he came off the bench.[3] As a senior, he helped William J. Brennan High School post a 31–3 record by averaging 23.6 points, 10.5 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 1.9 steals per game and earned Class 6A All-state recognition as a senior from the Texas Association of Basketball Coaches.[4] Murphy committed to play for VCU on November 13, 2014.[5] When VCU head coach Shaka Smart left VCU to coach Texas the following April, Murphy asked his successor Will Wade to be released from his commitment. Wade granted the release. At the time, Murphy already had interest from Oregon, UCLA, Gonzaga, and Miami.[6] Minnesota invited him for a visit on May 11,[7] after which he signed with Minnesota that Friday.[8]

As a freshman for the 2015–16 team, Murphy was twice named Big Ten Conference Freshman of the week.[9][10] His 24-point/10-rebound November 30, 2015, double-double against Clemson[11] and his 19-point/17-rebound December 5 double-double against South Dakota[12] were the first back-to-back double-doubles by a Minnesota freshman since Kris Humphries for the 2003–04 Gophers, which earned his first Big Ten Conference Freshman of the week on December 7.[9] No Minnesota freshman had even posted a single double-double since Humphries and the 24 points was the highest total by a Minnesota freshman since Andre Hollins of the 2011–12 Gophers.[13] The December 5 game included a Murphy tip in with one second remaining to send the game to overtime.[12] On February 18, Murphy posted 18 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists against number six ranked Maryland, helping 0–13 Minnesota earn its first conference win[14] and earning his second Big Ten Conference Freshman of the week honor on February 22.[10] Following the 2015–16 Big Ten Conference men's basketball season, he was named to the All-Freshman Big Ten team along with Thomas Bryant, Diamond Stone, Ethan Happ and Caleb Swanigan.[15][16][17]

Wooden Award watchlist.[37] Murphy was named MVP of the November Vancouver Showcase after averaging 15.7 points, 11.7 rebounds and 3.8 assists in wins over Texas A&M, Santa Clara and Washington.[38] In the Santa Clara win on November 20, Murphy surpassed Mychal Thompson as the Minnesota Golden Gopher career rebound leader.[39] Murphy tied Jim Brewer as the Minnesota all-time double-double producer with 24 points and 16 rebounds on November 30 against Oklahoma State and surpassed him two games later on December 5 with 18 points and 13 rebounds against Nebraska.[40][41] On January 9, Murphy was one of seven Big Ten athletes included on the Wooden Award Men's Midseason Top 25 watchlist.[42] On January 22, Murphy was one of four Big Ten athletes named to the Naismith Defensive Player of the Year Award Top 15 midseason watchlist.[43] After leading Minnesota to a win over (#19/21 ranked) Iowa on January 27 with 23 points, 11 rebounds and 6 assists, he moved past Joe Barry Carroll into second place on the all-time Big Ten career rebound list (behind Jerry Lucas).[44] On January 28, Murphy earned Co-Big Ten Player of the Week recognition, thus becoming the first Golden Gopher to earn five Big Ten Player of the Week recognitions.[45]

On February 7, Murphy was one of two Big Ten athletes (along with Iggy Brazdeikis) named a Karl Malone Award Top 10 finalist.[46] Following a pair of double-doubles against Nebraska and Indiana Murphy added a sixth Big Ten Player of the Week award on February 18.[47] Following the season, he was a 2019 First team All-Big Ten selection by the media and second team selection by the coaches.[48] On March 12, the U.S. Basketball Writers Association named Murphy to its 2018–19 Men's All-District V (OH, IN, IL, MI, MN, WI) Team, based upon voting from its national membership.[49] He was named to the National Association of Basketball Coaches Division I All‐District 7 first team on March 21, as selected and voted on by member coaches of the NABC, making him eligible for the 2019 NABC Coaches’ Division I All-America team.[50] He averaged 17.3 points and 9.3 rebounds in the 2019 Big Ten Conference men's basketball tournament,[51] earning a spot on the All-tournament team.[52] He led the Big Ten in rebounding average (11.0).[53]
