Even with a down season, Auburn basketball still made its presence felt at this year’s NBA Draft.
After French signee Narcisse Ngoy was selected in what’s presumed to be a “draft and stash” scenario at the end of the second round by the Los Angeles Clippers, both Keyshawn Hall and KeShawn Murphy signed Exhibit-10 deals with the Miami Heat and Washington Wizards, respectively, the program announced Thursday, June 25.

In four seasons, Hall played at four different schools, but he college career ended with a few career highs and an NIT championship alongside the Tigers. His 19.3 points per game was the best scoring average he had at the college level, and he posted the mark while averaging career-highs in rebounds (7.1) and assists (2.6).
Murphy averaged 10.7 points and 6.8 rebounds per game, and those numbers increased against the SEC, up to 11.2 points and 7.6 rebounds per game. He had a career-high 25 points in the win against Kentucky and overall had 13 double figure scoring games.
Hall and Murphy join a list of Auburn players in the NBA which includes Johni Broome, Dylan Cardwell, Sharife Cooper, Chaney Johnson, Miles Kelly, Walker Kessler, Davion Mitchell, Isaac Okoro and Jabari Smith Jr.
