Hawks guard Dejounte Murray has been suspended for one game for making contact with a game official toward the end of the Game 4 loss to the visiting Celtics on Sunday, the league announced.
The Hawks trail the series, 3-1, and Murray will serve the suspension in Game 5, when Boston can close out the series at home.
He did not speak to reporters after the loss.

Murray is in his first season with the Hawks, teaming with fellow guard Trae Young. Now, Young will be charged with trying to lead the Hawks to an upset road win in the biggest game of the season without his backcourt running-mate.
