What’s the buzz on Twitter?

Peter Vecsey @PeterVecsey1
If I’m the Nets,, I offer Simmons 4 Dejounte Murray. And do whatever must be done 2 make it work within salary cap. Why would Spurs do that? According to source, they were prepared to do that 4 Ben in Feb. Morey was lone Sixers’ dissenter. Had juice 2 decide on Harden… – 7:02 PM

MarJon Beauchamp and Spurs’ All-Star @Dejounte Murray attended the same high school (Rainier Beach HS).
Murray just hopped on Beauchamp’s IG Live to say congratulations and give him some advice.

I have another second round of the draft update and it’s that a group of Knicks fans has made its way to the front row and began to chant “f*** Trae Young” until they got yelled at by security. Now they have switched to non-curse words. – 11:44 PM

And with the Knicks on the clock we are getting a “F-Trae Young” chant. – 11:42 PM

Malaki Branham says he’s a big fan of Dejounte Murray.
“He was kind of in the same range that I was, just a hard worker, and he’s a great defensive player.” – 10:45 PM

ATLANTA HAWKS PICK A.J. GRIFFIN OF DUKE #16
SNAP GRADE: B+
@David Thorpe: Best shooter in draft. Amazing young man who likely played hurt all season. Needs to improve his D and should as he’s an athlete. Will prosper next to Trae; adds to Hawks’ depth.

Two teams that could blow up everybody’s NBA mock draft tonight: Charlotte and Atlanta. Charlotte has Nos. 13 and 15, and Atlanta has No. 16.
Said an NBA exec about Hawks: “They’ll listen (to trade talks) for anyone not named Trae (Young).” – 2:12 PM

Again, I rarely share information or nuggets that I’m hearing in a tweet. I write it in my pieces for @clevelanddotcom (including DeJounte Murray stuff in February) or share it via Subtext. But here’s a thread of everything I’ve written leading into tonight’s draft. – 12:13 PM
Justin Kubatko @jkubatko
📅 On this day in 2016, the @Philadelphia 76ers selected Ben Simmons with the first overall pick in the NBA Draft.
Six players from this draft have earned at least one All-Star nod:
3 – Simmons
2 – Domantas Sabonis
1 – Jaylen Brown
1 – Brandon Ingram
1 – Dejounte Murray
1 – Pascal Siakam pic.twitter.com/7heIdq70n812:01 PM

Dejounte Murray had an underrated year in San Antonio:
— 21/8/9
— Most triple doubles ever by a Spur
— 2nd in RPG for a guard
— 1st in SPG
— All Star
He became the first player in NBA history to record a 21p/8r/9a/2s season or better. pic.twitter.com/6KVRZPVKYY11:55 AM

📅 On this day in 2021, the @Jaryd Wilson Trae Young had 48 points and 11 assists in a 116-113 win over the Bucks in Game 1 of the ECF.
Young became the first (and still only) player in NBA history to record at least 45p/10a in a conference or division finals game. pic.twitter.com/1dmre0voH310:01 AM

More on this storyline

Paul Garcia: Jeremy Sochan said Dejounte Murray already texted him to welcome him to the team. The players said they’ll be connecting with the other Spurs players soon. -via Twitter @PaulGarciaNBA / June 25, 2022
As Bleacher Report’s Jake Fischer reported on Wednesday, sources confirm that there have been significant talks with San Antonio about a deal involving Collins and Spurs guard Dejounte Murray. Yet as of late last night, the Spurs’ massive price was seen as exorbitant by the Hawks. A significant gap exists there, it seems, but it’s still very much worth watching. -via The Athletic / June 23, 2022
Marc Stein: There’s plenty of Clint Capela noise out there as it is. But Trae Young really likes Clint capela. So if you’re going to trade Clint capela, you probably need to be sure that you’re gonna get a guy who meshes well with your franchise player. -via marcstein.substack.com / June 21, 2022
Rival teams have for weeks described the Hawks as a team looking to make broad changes around All-Star guard Trae Young. De’Andre Hunter and Onyeka Okongwu are widely regarded as the only two other Hawks that the team wouldn’t trade. -via marcstein.substack.com / June 20, 2022
The Hawks are one of the teams to monitor closely this week: sources say they’ve been actively looking to move into the top 10 and are eyeing Portland’s selection at No. 7, among other scenarios. Atlanta appears to have real interest in drafting a guard to pair with Trae Young. And John Collins, Clint Capela and Kevin Huerter have all surfaced as trade possibilities. -via Sports Illustrated / June 20, 2022
