Marcus Morris wants to stay with Knicks despite Clippers trade talk

LOS ANGELES — The sunny winter beaches of Los Angeles. The City of Lights. Hollywood. A title contender.

Marcus Morris said he’s still willing to pass it all up to stay with the rebuilding Knicks. The Clippers, who play host to the Knicks on Sunday at Staples Center, reportedly have interest in Morris, though they have a dearth of draft picks following the trade for Paul George.

Last month, Morris, who signed a one-year, $15 million pact in July, said emphatically he didn’t want to be dealt by the Feb. 7 trade deadline.

When told of the Clippers’ reported interest, Morris joked Friday that maybe it is for his twin brother, Markieff.
