Another double-double Murray finished Sunday's 116-103 loss to the Pelicans with 23 points (7-20 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 5-7 FT), one rebound, 11 assists and one steal in 41 minutes.
Impact Murray didn't have his best shooting performance and struggled overall as a scorer, but he salvaged his fantasy stat line by handing out 11 dimes. It's the fourth time across his last eight games that he has recorded double-digit assists, as he's taken on a more significant responsibility in the playmaking department with Trae Young (finger) sidelined. Until that changes, Murray should continue to experience a fantasy uptick, as well as a notoriously higher usage rate.

Impact Murray matched his season-high with 41 points, carrying the Hawks to a much-needed victory. Despite being without several key pieces, the Hawks have now won three straight games, keeping themselves firmly in the play-in race. They now have a four-game cushion over the Nets, while sitting two games behind the Bulls. If they hope to make any noise during the postseason, Murray is going to have to continue to put up gaudy numbers on a nightly basis.

Hands out nine assists in win Murray racked up 18 points (7-21 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two rebounds, nine assists and two steals across 39 minutes during Wednesday's 112-101 victory over the Cavaliers.
Impact Murray struggled from deep and nailed just one of his seven three-point attempts, but he salvaged his fantasy stat line by delivering a strong line in other categories, mainly the nine assists and two steals. Murray has taken over the playmaking duties in Atlanta with Trae Young (finger) out, and the numbers back that up. He's averaging 8.6 assists, as well as 21.9 points, 6.6 rebounds and 1.3 steals per game, since the end of the All-Star break.

Solid all-around showing in win Murray ended Tuesday's 116-100 victory over New York with 21 points (7-17 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds, six assists and one steal in 37 minutes.
Impact Murray has embraced a more significant role in the playmaking department due to the absence of Trae Young (finger), but he's been thriving in the same point guard role he had during his Spurs days. Murray is known for his ability to impact the game on both ends of the court, and such has been the case in recent weeks as well, as he's handling the uptick in usage rate quite well. Murray is averaging 22.5 points, 7.3 rebounds, 8.5 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.5 blocks per game since the end of the All-Star break.

Scores 20, hands out 11 dimes Murray closed with 20 points (8-19 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 2-4 FT), six rebounds, 11 assists, one block and two steals over 35 minutes during Saturday's 114-102 loss to the Nets.
Impact Murray didn't have his best shooting performance Saturday and needed 19 shots to score 20 points. However, the lack of efficiency will not hurt his fantasy upside, especially on games where he's putting up excellent all-around numbers such as this one. Murray has embraced a more significant responsibility in the playmaking department with Trae Young (finger) sidelined and has made the most of it, dishing out double-digit assists in three of his last four outings. He's also surpassed the 20-point mark three times in that stretch.

Scores 28 in loss to Brooklyn Murray totaled 28 points (11-19 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-7 FT), six rebounds and five assists over 32 minutes during Thursday's 124-97 loss to the Nets.
Impact Murray has embraced a more prominent role on offense with Trae Young (finger) sidelined, and the veteran guard has now scored 24 or more points in three of his last four appearances. The Hawks will need to see upticks in performances from several players, not just Murray, if they want to replace Young, but Murray should handle most of the playmaking responsibilities, resulting in a considerable uptick of his fantasy upside.

Double-double against Jazz Murray posted 17 points (7-19 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, 11 assists, two blocks and one steal over 32 minutes during Tuesday's 124-97 victory over Utah.
Impact With Trae Young (finger) sidelined, Murray is running the show in the Hawks' backcourt and has dished a season-high 11 dimes in back-to-back contests. He's recorded three straight double-doubles, with the third involving rebounds instead of assists, and in nine February games the 27-year-old is averaging 21.3 points, 7.6 assists, 6.6 boards, 1.6 threes, and 1.2 steals.

Sniffs triple-double Sunday Murray contributed 25 points (11-20 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, 11 assists and two steals across 39 minutes during Sunday's 109-92 win over the Magic.
Impact Murray moved to the point guard role with Trae Young (finger) sidelined, and he delivered an impressive two-way effort, carrying the team offensively but also being ever-present on both ends of the court. Murray has always been capable of filling out the stat sheet, and it wouldn't be surprising if he experiences a sizable uptick in his fantasy value with Young on the sidelines. Murray is averaging 22.1 points, 6.4 rebounds and 7.3 assists per game over his last 10 contests.
