Monté Morris Fantasy Stats

The Indiana Pacers will not sign point guard Monte Morris (calf) to a contract, Dustin Dopirak of the Indianapolis Star reports. It was announced earlier this week that the Pacers would snap up Morris on a one-year deal. However, the team has decided against signing him after its medical staff determined that a calf strain Morris recently suffered would keep him out of most of training camp. Instead, the Pacers will bring in Delon Wright for camp. Indiana has been seeking extra depth at the point guard position, with Tyrese Haliburton (Achilles) ruled out for the upcoming season.

Shams Charania of ESPN reports that free-agent point guard Monte Morris has agreed to a one-year deal with the Indiana Pacers on Tuesday. The 29-year-old appeared in 45 regular-season games with Phoenix last season, averaging 5.2 points, 1.6 assists and 1.5 rebounds across 12.7 minutes per contest. Despite providing the Pacers with backcourt depth, Morris will not be a fantasy asset for fantasy managers during his ninth campaign in the NBA.

The Phoenix Suns announced veteran guard Monte Morris (back) is unavailable for Wednesday's contest against the Houston Rockets. Morris is set to miss his 14th consecutive contest due to a back injury. The 29-year-old out of action won't affect fantasy this evening since he's only averaging 13.1 minutes and 4.9 points per game across 40 outings this season. His next opportunity to return to the floor is on Friday versus the Sacramento Kings.

Phoenix Suns guard Monte Morris (back) is on the injury report with a questionable status ahead of Tuesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. An issue with his lower back may keep Morris out of the lineup for a second straight game. However, he hasn't played in any of the past five games, making Morris irrelevant in fantasy basketball. With Bradley Beal returning to the starting lineup a couple of games ago, Morris has even slipped further down the depth chart.

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Monte Morris (hamstring) is questionable for Monday's game against the Utah Jazz. The 28-year-old has dealt with hamstring soreness but returned on Saturday after missing three straight contests. If available, Minnesota will likely continue to take a conservative approach with the 28-year-old, who played just 10 minutes and scored two points on Saturday. Should Morris suit up, he will not factor into fantasy play, as he is averaging 4.8 points, 1.6 rebounds, and 2.2 assists across 18 games this season.

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Monte Morris (hamstring) is available for Saturday's game against the Utah Jazz. The 28-year-old was dealing with hamstring soreness that kept him out for three games. Since joining the T-Wolves in February, Morris has averaged 5.3 points and 2.9 assists in 15.7 minutes. With Morris returning to the rotation, Jordan McLaughlin will likely see less time on the court. Despite the point guard's return, he is not a viable fantasy option for Saturday.

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Monte Morris (hamstring) has been listed as questionable for Saturday's matchup against Utah. The veteran guard is dealing with hamstring soreness, which has already kept him out for three games. Since joining the T-Wolves in February, Morris has averaged 5.3 points and 2.9 assists in 15.7 minutes. His absence has left the door open for Jordan McLaughlin to play a larger part in the rotation, but he's not a recommended fantasy target.

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Monte Morris will be available to make his team debut on Monday versus the Clippers. The veteran was picked up last week from Detroit in exchange for Troy Brown Jr., Shake Milton, and a second-round draft pick. Morris was hurt at the start of the campaign and featured just eight times for the Pistons. He posted 4.5 points and 1.3 assists in 11.3 minutes off the bench. Morris is still working his way back into full rhythm, and his numbers should improve, but only an injury to Mike Conley would make him a viable fantasy option.

Detroit Pistons point guard Monte Morris (quadriceps) has been listed as probable for Wednesday's meeting with the Hornets, meaning he will likely make his season debut. Morris, who was picked up from Washington for a second-round pick in the summer, has been unavailable so far in 2023-24 due to a right quadriceps strain. The 28-year-old has put up solid numbers throughout his six-year NBA career, but it's unclear where he will fit in Detroit's plans, as the backcourt is full of young prospects who need playing time to develop.

Detroit Pistons guard Monte Morris (quad) has reportedly begun ramping up activities and is hopeful to return by the end of January. The veteran guard has not played this season while he continues to recover from a quad strain. The team announced in November that Morris would miss 6-8 weeks of action. Head coach Monty Williams said that Morris is no longer dealing with pain in his quad. It sounds like Morris is making good progress, but he should still remain on the waiver wire for the moment.
