Dejounte Murray took over the Spurs’ starting point guard job from Tony Parker last season and made the NBA All-Defensive second team — and the Spurs thought he was going to break out this season. His jump shot reportedly was about to become a weapon.
And then he blew out his ACL. Murray is now out for the season.
Sympathy and positive vibes flowed from NBA players to Murray when the news broke.
