The Hawks found an All-Star teammate for Trae Young. RohanNadkarni grades the Dejounte Murray trade ↓
. San Antonio receives a 2023 first via Charlotte that’s lottery protected, two unprotected Atlanta firsts in 2025 and 2027, as well as the rights to a pick swap in 2026.
Murray, who will be 26 at the start of the season, averaged 21.1 points, 8.3 rebounds and 9.2 assists a game for the Spurs in 2021–22, which earned him his first All-Star selection. He is signed through 2024 when he can become an unrestricted free agent. Let’s grade the deal for both sides.Hmmm. Murray is a really, really good player. Even if he’s not a perennial All-Star, the Hawks have long needed a secondary ball-handler and somebody with Murray’s defensive capabilities.
Still, three firsts are a steep price for a team that’s not exactly a contender trying to get over the hump, especially with that last pick years down the line. Murray’s contract will also end at an interesting time. You don’t trade three firsts for someone you don’t want long term. Will Atlanta be willing to pay all of Young, Murray, John Collins, De’Andre Hunter and Onyeka Okongwu? The latter two will need new contracts in the next two years.
