Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray bumped into an official at the end of Sunday's playoff loss to the Boston Celtics.
Murray then turned around and pointed toward the stands on the opposite side of the court before two members of the Hawks staff restrained him and directed him back toward the tunnel. Video cuts off as Murray walks toward the tunnel.
It's not clear what led up to the incident. TNT broadcast footage of the game didn't capture the bump. Murray didn't comment on it immediately after the game, and the NBA had yet to address it. The league will surely look into it though, and discipline could be in store for the Hawks guard if the NBA deems the contact intentional.
Boston took a 3-1 series lead with Sunday's win. The series heads back to Boston for Game 5, where Atlanta faces elimination with a loss. Murray is Atlanta's second-leading scorer. He averaged 20.5 points, 6.1 assists and 5.3 rebounds this season, his first with the Hawks following an offseason trade from the San Antonio Spurs.Your browser does not support HTML5 audio.
