REPORT: Markieff Morris Gaining Interest From Multiple Contenders

Posted by Zariq Turner on February 5, 2020

Per Kevin O’ Connor of The Ringer, multiple contenders have reached out to the Detroit Pistons about veteran Power Forward, Markieff Morris. Teams interested include; Celtics, Clippers, Rockets, Bucks, Sixers, and Lakers.

The Rockets have also expressed interest in Pistons forward Markieff Morris, per a source.

Houston can add up to $5.8M before hitting the tax. Morris ($3.2M) would fit.

Perhaps a big would make more sense though, such as Aron Baynes, Kevon Looney or Alex Len. They have options.

Morris’ $3.2M contract has a player option for next year, and is currently averaging 11 PPG, 3.9 RPG, and 1.5 APG. Morris could add a lot of value to a contending team’s second unit – such as the Los Angeles Lakers.

The trade deadline ends tomorrow, February 6th at 3PM Eastern.
