ATLANTA — The Hawks added a new chip to their backcourt on Wednesday evening, reportedly acquired guard Dejounte Murray from the Spurs.
Per ESPN, the Hawks dealt forward Danilo Gallinari and three first-round picks to the Spurs in exchange for All-Star guard Murray. The picks are the Hawks’ 2023 first-round pick via the Hornets as well as their own 2025 and 2027 first-round picks, which both are unprotected. The sides also agreed to swap picks in 2026.
The Spurs drafted Murray 29th overall in the 2016 NBA draft, and he is coming off a breakout season in which he averaged 21.1 points, 8.3 rebounds and 9.2 assists. He also made 46.2% of his shots from the floor and 32.7% of his 3-pointers.
