Dejounte Murray told reporters that he is taking full responsibility for his actions at the end of Game 4 that led to his one-game suspension for Game 5 against the Celtics.
Murray was suspended for making inappropriate contact with and verbally abusing a game official, according to a statement from the NBA.
On Tuesday, Murray said that “there was a lot” that led up to Sunday’s incident which involved him bumping referee Gediminas Petraitis. He said he’s been experiencing “one-sided” treatment from Petraitis for years, dating back to Murray’s time with the San Antonio Spurs.
