Quin Snyder, the head coach of the Atlanta Hawks, has reportedly advocated for the team to retain Dejounte Murray beyond the trade deadline, as per sources informed by Marc Stein.
Despite being a prominent trade candidate throughout the season, no apparent trade partner for the Hawks has materialized.
Murray, who has been performing well amid trade rumors, is under a favorable contract and signed a four-year, $114 million extension with the Hawks during the past offseason.
