This past summer saw the Phoenix Suns trade Marcus Morris in a salary dump, followed by harsh words from him on his way out, and an unambiguous trade demand from his twin Markieff. Now Markieff is playing his worst ball as a pro. Do you believe these things are unrelated?
Markieff Morris isn't right this season. While his 13.1 PPG and 5.4 RPG are roughly in line with his career averages, he's scoring those points in a woefully inefficient manner. His overall FG% is 40.5%. He's shooting more 3s, but still not effectively at 31.7%, and his TS% is a career low 46.
