NBA Trade Rumors: Multiple Teams Eyeing Atlanta Hawks' Dejounte Murray

Murray's Performance Boosts Trade Value, But Contract Extension and Hawks' Asking Price Pose Challenges

• Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray is a hot topic in NBA trade rumors, with multiple teams reportedly interested in acquiring him before the February 8 trade deadline.
• The Milwaukee Bucks, Los Angeles Lakers, Miami Heat, and Golden State Warriors are among the teams linked to Murray, who is currently averaging 21.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 4.8 assists per game.
• Murray's four-year, $114 million contract extension, which kicks in next season, is seen as a potential stumbling block for some teams due to new NBA salary rules coming into effect next season.
• The Hawks are reportedly asking for two first-round draft picks in return for Murray, a price that no team has yet been willing to meet.
• Murray's performance on the court continues to impress, with recent game-clinching jumpers in back-to-back games increasing his trade value.
