San Antonio Spurs guard Dejounte Murray is not a happy man after ESPN brought his name up in a trade scenario, and he made his displeasure known.
Murray was brought up by the famed sports network as part of a hypothetical trade. According to the outlet, Murray — along with several other Spurs — would be part of a package deal to get Anthony Davis.
Obviously, Murray should have figured out that trading all these players for one player was little more than a long shot hypothetical, but he didn't.
And, naturally, when he found out about it, he was less than thrilled:
TAKE MY NAME OUT THIS DUMB ASS TRADE!!!! 🤦🏽♂️ @ESPNNBA https://t.co/rF2ZjDtSAy

It doesn't look like Murray has anything to worry about — yet — as it seems that the Spurs are most interested in trading Pau Gasol.
Murray hasn't played this season due to a torn ACL, and he's going to miss the entire 2018-19 campaign. Prior to that, however, Murray made the 2018 All-Defensive second team and posted 8.1 points, 5.7 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game during the 2017-18 season.
Dejounte Murray is still a valuable player, as the third-year guard factors heavily in the franchise's future. The Spurs moving him would take the right kind of deal, and while getting Anthony Davis would represent that kind of deal, there is no indication of this kind of trade happening.
