Atlanta's Dejounte Murray suspended for Game 5 versus Celtics
Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray has been suspended for Game 5 of the team's series against the Boston Celtics, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
What It Means:
Murray was suspended for making intentional contact with a referee at the end of the Hawks' Monday night loss to the Celtics. The Celtics currently lead the series 3-1, meaning Murray could miss the team's final game of the year.
Murray started in all four of the Hawks' first games in the series and missed just eight total games over the course of the regular season while averaging 20.5 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 6.1 assists per game.
