Morris became a free agent Thursday after his 10-day contract with the Cavaliers expired, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Cleveland has the ability to re-sign Morris to a second 10-day deal, though it's unclear if the team has any desire to keep him around. Over the course of his first 10-day pact, Morris appeared in five games and averaged 7.8 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.4 three-pointers and 1.2 assists in 18.2 minutes per contest, but he fell out of the rotation in Wednesday's 118-111 loss to the Hornets while Max Strus (knee) made his return from a 12-game absence.

Morris was ejected from Monday's game against the Hornets after being assessed a Flagrant 2 foul, Evan Dammarell of FearTheSword.com reports. He had three points (1-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt) in eight minutes before exiting.
EDGE Analysis
Morris picked up the foul after making what was deemed unnecessary contact with Nick Richards, and he was immediately ejected from the contest. He failed to contribute much before getting tossed.

Morris provided 11 points (4-10 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds and one assist over 26 minutes during Friday's 104-91 loss to the Timberwolves.
EDGE Analysis
Morris wasn't sharp with his shooting and made just one of his five attempts from beyond the arc, but he had enough volume to score in double digits, marking the second time he has reached that mark in his first three games with Cleveland. He should continue to have a role off the bench with the Cavs, especially given how depleted their frontcourt is at the moment, but Morris should be left on the wire in most fantasy leagues outside of deep formats.

Morris contributed 14 points (5-7 FG, 4-5 3Pt) and four rebounds across 20 minutes during Monday's 108-103 victory over the Pacers.
EDGE Analysis
This was a terrific debut for Morris, and the Cavaliers gave him a solid role right away. Given the amount of injuries in Cleveland, that could continue in the short term. Morris is worth monitoring closely in deeper fantasy formats, especially if Donovan Mitchell (knee/nose), Max Strus (knee), Evan Mobley (ankle) and Dean Wade (knee) remain out.

Morris is available for Monday's game against Indiana, Chris Fedor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Freshly inked to a 10-day deal, Morris will be available and could slot into the rotation for an undermanned Cleveland squad. Though he averaged just 17.2 minutes per game in 37 appearances with the 76ers earlier this season, Morris proved to be a proficient perimeter shooter, knocking down 40 percent of his 2.4 three-point attempts per contest.

Morris and the Cavaliers agreed to a 10-day contract Saturday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Morris was bought out by the Spurs prior to the March 1 deadline, so he will be eligible for the postseason. With so many injuries in Cleveland and given Morris' track record in the NBA, he could find a role right away.

Morris agreed to a contract buyout with the Spurs on Thursday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Upon clearing waivers, Morris will be free to join a team of his choosing, and he'll likely receive some interest from postseason teams. However, it's unlikely he'll find himself in a situation where he suddenly becomes a major factor in fantasy hoops, so he can safely remain on the waiver wire in most leagues.
