Sat Apr 8 202322:13Dejounte Murray Ruled Out Versus Boston
Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray (ankle) won't suit up against the Celtics. Trae Young (groin) and Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee) are out as well, so the Hawks will have to go deep into the bench. As a result, Aaron Holiday, AJ Griffin, Vit Krejci, and Garrison Mathews should all see enough work to warrant DFS consideration. However, whoever starts should be the preferred fantasy option.

Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray (illness) is no longer listed on the league's injury report, suggesting he'll play on Saturday against Indiana.

Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray (illness) went from questionable to out on Tuesday due to a non-COVID illness.

Bogdan Bogdanovic will likely move into the starting five and take on a bigger role while Aaron Holiday could see some more minutes coming off of the bench. The better streaming options would be Bogdanovic and maybe Saddiq Bey if he's available.

Murray is feeling under the weather with a non-COVID illness and will likely see how he feels during pregame warm ups.

Sat Mar 4 202307:43Dejounte Murray Scores Career-High 41 Points Against Portland
Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray carried the offense with a career-high 41 points on Friday against Portland, hitting 17-for-22 from the field and a perfect 5-for-5 from deep in a 129-111 win. He added five rebounds and six assists to his tally as well with one steal and four turnovers in 34 minutes. Murray's previous best was 40 points, which he also had against the Blazers earlier in the season. Damian Lillard & Co. will be very glad to know that they won't have to face the Hawks again this term. Murray averaged only 19.3 points last month but had a strong finish to February and certainly got off on the right foot in March as well. He has notched 27.3 points per game after the All-Star break and will look to continue the good scoring run in back-to-back games against Miami.

Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray (migraine) was a later addition to the injury report as he's suffering from a migraine headache and is officially listed as questionable for the game against the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday.

The former would be the safest streaming option if he's available.

Tue Jan 31 202308:49Dejounte Murray Sets New Record With 40 Points
Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray produced his best-ever scoring outing on Monday against Portland, leading the troops with 40 points in a 129-125 loss. Trae Young (ankle) had the night off and it gave Murray all the keys to the offense. He shot 13-for-26 from the field and 5-for-8 from downtown with a 9-for-9 record at the charity stripe. In 38 minutes on the floor, he was also able to get eight rebounds, seven assists and two steals while finishing without a single turnover. Murray has now had five games without Young this season and the numbers speak for themselves. He has averaged 26.4 points in those games with 6.4 rebounds and 7.8 assists, while Murray has registered 20.6 points, 5.4 rebounds and 5.9 assists in situations where Young has been in the lineup.

Thu Jan 19 202311:50Dejounte Murray Leads Hawks In Scoring On Wednesday
Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray was red-hot on Wednesday night as he led the team to a 130-122 win over the Dallas Mavericks. The 26-year-old posted 30 points, seven rebounds, four assists, and one steal while shooting an efficient 12-for-18 from the floor and 4-for-6 from deep. Ever since he became the co-star in Atlanta with Trae Young, his three-point shooting has gone way up in both attempts and efficiency. That has allowed him to reach the top 30 in fantasy rankings for category leagues and even higher for points leagues as he still posts one of the best steals per game marks in the league.

Sun Jan 15 202308:21Dejounte Murray Breaks Out Offensively
Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray had one of his best scoring performances of the season on Saturday against Toronto, finishing a 114-103 victory with 27 points on 10-for-17 shooting. His efficient night also included a 2-for-5 effort from deep, eight rebounds, six assists and two steals. Murray hadn't hit the 20-point mark in four games but had already 10 points in the first quarter on Saturday and stayed in rhythm until the final buzzer. Trae Young added 29 points as Atlanta's big-name backcourt enjoyed one of their better outings together. Murray is averaging 20.2 points, 5.5 rebounds, 6.1 assists and 1.7 steals during his debut campaign in Atlanta.

Thu Dec 29 202211:27Dejounte Murray Nearly Has Triple-Double In Losing Effort
Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray may not have shot the lights out, but he did a little bit of everything to try to will the team to a win against the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday. The 26-year-old posted 24 points, nine rebounds, eight assists, and one steal across 40 minutes. His shooting night left a bit to be desired as he only hit 38.5% of his 26 shots. Since returning from injury, Murray's shooting has been a bit off as he's only hit 41.8% of his attempts over the last five games, and has been shooting 24% from deep.

Thu Dec 8 202219:40Dejounte Murray Expected To Miss Two Weeks
May the drama in Atlanta continue. Hawks point guard Dejounte Murray (ankle) is expected to miss two weeks due to an ankle sprain. Murray's absence will be felt with the Hawks outside looking in on the Eastern Conference elites. His backcourt mate Trae Young hasn't shot the ball well, evident in his 28 percent three-point shooting, leaving the Hawks in a tough spot. Perhaps the Hawks will find something to do with John Collins without Murray. The Hawks currently rank 19th in offensive rating, which is a troubling sign for a team that doesn't have an elite defense.

Wed Dec 7 202220:30Dejounte Murray Won't Return On Wednesday
Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray (ankle) will not return for Wednesday's game against the New York Knicks. The 26-year-old only played four minutes before suffering a left ankle sprain. The team has decided to take the cautious approach and have Murray sit out for the rest of the game. Aaron Holiday should absorb more minutes as the primary backup guard, while Bogdan Bogdanovic will likely play more alongside Trae Young. Fantasy managers will have to check back for another update after the game. Hopefully, Murray isn't forced to miss time because of this injury. Otherwise, Bogdanovic should have increased value, while Aaron Holiday might be worth snagging in deep leagues.

Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray (ankle) is considered questionable to return for Wednesday's game against the New York Knicks. The stud guard suffered a left ankle sprain, so it wouldn't be shocking to see the Hawks be cautious and rest Murray.

Fantasy managers will have to check back for another update on Murray.

Sat Dec 3 202208:33Dejounte Murray Leads Hawks To Victory
Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray had one of his best games of the season on Friday, leading all scorers with 34 points in a 117-109 victory over Denver. He shot 13-for-22 from the field with a 4-for-7 effort from downtown and collected eight assists with three rebounds, one block and one turnover. Murray had a chance to enjoy his third-highest scoring game of the season, with Atlanta missing a number of starters, including Trae Young (shoulder). The two have played well together, but Young's absence gives Murray an opportunity to run the backcourt all on his own. He's been getting 21.4 points per game this season with 5.7 rebounds and 6.7 assists, and Murray should be leading the charge again Monday versus the Thunder if Young can't return.

Tue Nov 8 202215:59Dejounte Murray Falls Just Short Of Triple-Double
Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray fell just shy of his second double-double with his new team on Monday. In their win over the previously undefeated Milwaukee Bucks, Murray posted 25 points, eight rebounds, 11 assists, and three steals on 11-for-24 shooting from the floor. Any time Trae Young has been out, Murray has put up some great numbers as the lead guard. Those don't dip much when Young has been in the lineup as well. His fantasy stock seems to be on the rise as he has stayed healthier than his backcourt mate so far.

Sun Nov 6 202215:35Dejounte Murray Records His First Hawks Triple-Double
Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray found his way to a triple-double on Saturday, notching 22 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists in a 124-121 overtime victory against New Orleans. The triple-double -- his first in a Hawks uniform -- saved Murray's line on a rather poor shooting night, as he went 9-for-23 from the floor with a miserable 1-for-8 performance from downtown. The 2022 All-Star also bagged three steals and had two turnovers in 42 minutes. Murray is typically pretty efficient with his shooting numbers, so this should be only a one-off thing. He always finds ways to fill the box score, and November has started particularly well for Murray, who has averaged 29 points with seven rebounds, 10 rebounds and four steals this month in two games.

Although shooting percentages weren't the best, much to the dismay of category managers, he is expected to contribute at a high-level moving ahead.

Meanwhile, the Spurs will now enter the discussion for the first overall pick in the 2023 draft as the franchise has its sights set on a full-on rebuild.
