After spending 6 years in San Antonio, Dejounte Murray was traded to the Atlanta Hawks and in his first summer away from home, he’s traveled court to court terrorizing everyone in his path.

There is no reason why an NBA player should be spending their summer humiliating gym teachers and psych majors at every open gym they can drive to in a day. Somehow, Dejounte has managed to harass more young physical therapists in his offseason than Deshaun Watson did.
I think Murray has convinced himself that he is providing entertainment to local communities and allowing them to watch an NBA “All-Star” without having to pay NBA ticket prices. Cool. But it quickly becomes a Harlem Globetrotters game when the opponents aren’t as talented as the millionaire point guard who is treating defenders like the Washington Generals.
It doesn’t matter if you’re Michael the custodian or Michael (the) Jordan, you cannot bounce a basketball off my head and expect the game to continue.
It’s even worse when it’s Dejounte fucking Murray. You have to look your friends and family in the eyes and explain to them who Dejounte Murray even is. Someone is going to send your mother the clip of him pulling down your paints at halfcourt and when she calls, you have to take 5 minutes and break down the San Antonio Spurs rebuild post-Tim Duncan. And then who Tim Duncan is. It’d be a whole thing.
Murray is now at war with Orlando Magic rookie, Paolo Banchero, after treating Banchero like the Home Depot cashiers he was traumatizing earlier in the week.

These two have been going back and forth online and I will not be posting any of it because again, it’s Dejounte Murray but he’s being a reaaaal weirdo spending his offseason doing basketball pranks in high school gyms and beating his chest about it.
We never need to see what these players are doing in the offseason. Whether it’s Ben Simmons making 3-pointers in an empty gym or it’s the New York Knicks going to a pro-am game and losing by double digits to the ‘ams’ in pro-am, let’s just bury all this footage and wait for the preseason.
I’ve already written about what Murray is going to bring to the Hawks next season but perhaps I need to update that article. Dejounte will also be providing deranged 2am nose runny cocaine energy to the court which will help Atlanta against more physical teams like Miami and Milwaukee. Dejounte might bite Marcus Smart next season.
Or Murray will be arrested by the end of the month for the sole purpose of dunking on Young Thug at the Cobb County Prison courts.
