Dejounte Murray and the Atlanta Hawks have agreed to a four-year contract extension worth up to $120 million, agent Rich Paul told ESPN.
Murray will bypass free agency next summer, instead staying with the Hawks for five years and $138 million total, including this season. The final year of the contract, the 2027-28 season, will be a player option.
Murray, 26, averaged 20.5 points, 6.1 assists, 5.3 rebounds and 1.5 steals in 74 games (all starts) in his first season with the Hawks.
Murray spent his first five NBA seasons with the San Antonio Spurs before being traded to Atlanta in part for forward Danilo Gallinari and three first-round picks.
Overall, Murray has career averages of 14.0 points, 5.9 rebounds, 5.0 assists, and 1.4 steals in 394 games.
