Murray's handle and ability to change pace is much better than Buddy's.And wrong Buddy is the closest thing to Steph in this draft. Not murray.
Jamal Murray would be the ideal trade up target, no one in this draft could add real firepower to the offense next season quite like Murray..
He's a CJ McCollum/Gilbert Arenas style combo guard, who's also been compared to Brandon Roy, and would fit seamlessly next to Exum at SG and Hood/Burks at PG. He's dangerous with and without the ball. Quick release shooter.
Shot a blistering 41% from 3 on 7.7 attempts as a Freshman, and closed out the season with #'s even stronger then that.

He's also the closest player you'll find to Steph Curry in this draft..

Also a jackpot scenario could be Henry Ellenson falling to the pick. He's not a perfect match because he's just about exactly Trey Lyles size, maybe a half an inch taller. He's a better rebounder and shotblocker for sure and he's more used to playing 5, he'd be a seamless fit at PF next to Favors, Gobert or Withey too.

I believe he's got some Kevin Love to his game, his handle/faceup game is really something for a player his size too. He and Lyles with Burks off the bench could really attack the basket from the perimeter aggressively
Davis is interesting but I like Skal better, I'm waiting for measurements and workouts though to really decide. I haven't ruled Stephen Zimmerman out yet either.
