Ben Murphy brings Maryland veteran depth, but limited on-court sample
Ben Murphy is a 6-foot-1 senior guard for Maryland who’s best viewed as a depth piece rather than a usage-heavy rotation driver: in the 2024-25 season, he appeared in 10 games and was used sparingly, with his Maryland profile noting two points and two assists in a win over Saint Francis plus an earlier debut with two points against UMBC. The differentiator is experience, local familiarity, and low-mistake utility, but the stat line suggests his value is mostly in practice habits, readiness, and bench stability rather than scoring punch.
