Atlanta Hawks star Dejounte Murray may have gotten himself into a little bit of trouble at the end of the team’s Game 4 loss to the Boston Celtics on Sunday.
A video posted to social media appeared to show Murray making contact with referee Gediminas Petraitis as he walked off the floor. Murray also appeared to yell something back toward Petraitis as he walked off the floor.

The NBA is reportedly investigating the interaction. It is unclear what triggered Murray to get into the face of Petraitis.
The NBA will likely make a decision on whether Murray can play Game 5 against the Celtics at some point before tip-off. Game 5 is set for Tuesday night.

The box score appeared to be even in foul category. Atlanta was called for 24 fouls and Boston was called for 23 fouls. The Hawks shot 87.5% from the free-throw line and the Celtics were 84%.
