Dejounte Murray seems to be on the move.
Reports that the Hawks and the Spurs are involved in a trade between John Collins and Dejounte Murray circulated last week and Murray himself commented on the situation by quote tweeting the report, writing “Uh Ohhhhhhhhh” with a popcorn emoji.
According to WSB-TV’s Zach Klein, the Hawks are “on [the] verge” of acquiring Dejounte Murray from the San Antonio Spurs.
In return, they would exchange veteran forward Danilo Gallinari and multiple first-round draft picks.
Bleacher Report’s Jake Fischer previously reported that a package for Murray would revolve around John Collins. However, Klein said the 24-year-old forward isn’t part of this potential proposal.

Murray is coming off an All-Star campaign in which he averaged 21.1 points, 9.2 assists, 8.3 rebounds, and 2.0 steals per game.
As a two-way star, Murray would make an excellent backcourt partner for Trae Young in Atlanta.
