Super Morris Bros: Can the Morris Brothers Thrive Without Each Other?

How will the Morris bros fare without each other?

Marcus and Markieff Morris tend to operate on the same wave length. “Keef” is seven minutes older than his brother and was drafted one pick and five minutes before him. They both went to Kansas. They lived together while they played for the Suns. They signed four year contract extensions to stay in Phoenix on the same day. And, unfortunately, they also received identical felony assault charges when they beat up a former mentor in April.

Perhaps in response to this incident, in July, the Suns traded Marcus to Detroit for basically nothing—a salary dump.
