The Cleveland Cavs have signed forward Marcus Morris Sr. for the remainder of the season, the team announced Friday.
Morris initially signed a 10-day contract on March 18th, appearing in five games since, averaging 7.8 points, three rebounds in 18.4 minutes per game.
Morris has had an impact in his short time with the Cavs. In Monday’s game against the Charlotte Hornets, a 115-92 win, his ejection with 6:34 left in the second quarter is credited to waking the team from its malaise.
It’s clear from the Cavs’ recent struggles (3-7 in their last 10 games), including an embarrassing loss to the Charlotte Hornets Wednesday, that the team needs a spark.
