Dejounte Murray officially transferred to Atlanta
Forward Danilo Gallinari and three first-round draft picks – 2023 (from Charlotte), 2025, and 2027 (their own) – followed in the opposite direction.
The San Antonio Spurs also get to swap first-round picks in 2026.
Dejounte made his first All-Star Game appearance last season. He averaged 21.1 points, 8.3 rebounds, and 9.2 assists per game.
The opportunity to acquire a player of Dejounte’s caliber as he enters his prime doesn’t come around very often. He has built a reputation as one of the elite two-way defenders in the NBA, we are very excited to add him to our roster.
I would also like to thank Gallo for his professionalism and contributions to Atlanta over the past two seasons,” said Hawks head of office Travis Schlenk.
