[Saba Sports News] During Thursday’s game between the Atlanta Hawks and the Boston Celtics, an Atlanta Hawks fan scored $10,000 for hitting a half-court shot during a timeout. However, Dejounte Murray believes that reward isn’t sufficient and wants to gift the fan an additional $10,000.
NBA fans responded to Murray’s offer with enthusiasm. One fan praised Murray, calling him “the man,” while another expressed admiration for his gesture, stating, “Mad respect for this move Murray! Love to see this kind of blessing!” Some fans reminisced about larger rewards given in the past, while others humorously suggested Murray’s generosity was to secure his position on the team.
Despite the excitement, there was a humorous twist as one fan jokingly claimed credit for the shot, and another quipped about the wish to be in the lucky fan’s shoes. Murray’s generosity may have been influenced by the Hawks’ victory over the Celtics, as they won 123-122 in overtime, leaving him in high spirits.
