Brooklyn Nets pursued Markieff Morris on buyout market (Report)

The Brooklyn Nets appear to be standing pat with the roster they have. They remained quiet during the trade deadline, but the latest report indicates that Brooklyn had interest in Markieff Morris.

Markieff Morris had an aggressive market over the past week — with pursuits from the Thunder, Rockets, Nets, Raptors and several others. OKC received the commitment from Morris on Thursday. https://t.co/nTKdlSJSKX
