Dejounte Murray is a one-time All-Star currently playing for the Atlanta Hawks in the NBA. Born September 19, 1996, Murray is one of the best two-way guards in the league. Before getting traded to the Hawks in 2022, Murray played for the San Antonio Spurs, who drafted him with the 29th pick in 2016.

In San Antonio, Murray played under legendary head coach Gregg Popvich who took his skills to another level, making him a legit threat on both ends of the court. Murray is a lockdown defender who disrupts passing lanes, gets steals, and applies relentless pressure on opponents. He also thrives in transition, using his speed and ball-handling to turn defense into quick offense. He also has a sweet mid-range stroke.

Murray's versatility as a two-way player continues to shine, and in the 2021-22 season, he averaged a near triple-double of 21.1 points, 8.3 rebounds and 9.2 assists per game. One of Murray's career highlights was when he became the first player in NBA history to record at least 30 points, 10 rebounds, and no more than one turnover in consecutive games. This remarkable feat demonstrated his impact on both ends of the floor and solidified his status as a rising star in the league.

In the 2022 off season, Dejounte Murray joined Trae Young’s Atlanta Hawks where he embraced the opportunity to help lead the Hawks to greater heights.
