One player is a heralded McDonald’s All-American expected to step in and score right away. The other is a son of a former NBA player that Florida coach Billy Donovan faced in college.
Versatile guard Kenny Boynton and forward/center Erik Murphy compose a Florida freshman men’s basketball class that’s short on experience but long on promise.
So far, Donovan is encouraged with both Boynton and Murphy because they reported to camp in excellent shape.
“That’s allowed us to sustain a level of intensity in practice that we were unable to sustain last season,” Donovan said.
