Dejounte Murray highlighted "generational wealth" in response to comments made about being a non-party goer

Dejounte Murray previously talked about his lack of interest in attending parties and clubs in an interview on the "All The Smoke" podcast on Jan. 19, 2023. He considers it as something from another lifetime and instead is focused on preserving and making the most out of his current situation.

He highlighted the importance of keeping things simple about basketball and his family. SportsCenter reshared those comments on Instagram, to which Murray responded in his Instagram stories.

"They all more than straight forever," Murray wrote. "This s*** set up! Generational wealth."

During the podcast interview, Murray pointed out how important it is to steer clear of any situations or scenarios that could jeopardize what he's worked so hard to achieve.

The 6-foot-5 guard was originally selected 29th overall in 2016 by the San Antonio Spurs, where he played five seasons. He slowly established himself as a reliable two-way athlete who can match up against the best in the league.

In the two seasons he played with the Atlanta Hawks, Dejounte Murray put up 21.5 points (46.2% shooting, including 35.5% from beyond the arc), 6.3 assists and 5.3 rebounds per game.

Now, with the New Orleans Pelicans, Murray is envisioned as an integral piece to their promising core of players such as Zion Williamson, Herbert Jones, Brandon Ingram, Trey Murphy III and CJ McCollum.
