After redshirting last year and being in the system for that year, Alex is expected to contribute right away, providing one of the elements Duke lacked last year. Size and strength on the wing is just what the doctor ordered and anything that Murphy can contribute on the offensive end will be sorely needed with the losses of Miles Plumee and Austin Rivers. Murphy is expected to start and should be able to assist in the rebounding department as well as in other facets, he possesses and all around game and his added strength will come in handy for Duke once ACC Season starts.
