Adam Morrison retired from professional basketball and has joined Gonzaga's men's basketball coaching staff as an assistant. Morrison washed out of the NBA before last season and attempted to catch on with a European team. It's a strange end to a career that never really took off after Morrison was the third overall pick in 2006. Now he returns to the school that made him famous, where he'll be a student assistant to start.

Adam Morrison, who was waived by the Blazers before the regular season, is now exploring his European options. Morrison said that he would retire if he didn't make Portland's roster, but that's clearly not the case. "We are looking for a good Euroleague or Eurocup situation for (Adam)," his agent said. Morrison's ultimate goal is to return to the NBA.

The Blazers will waive F Adam Morrison, G Coby Karl and F Justin Holiday. They will no longer practice with the team and the moves put the Blazers at 15 rostered players. Karl made the biggest impression in camp, and it's possible he could be signed to some 10-day contracts later this season. Morrison averaged just three points in five preseason games for Portland, likely signaling the end of his disastrous career.

Adam Morrison and Sasha Pavlovic are competing for the final roster spot on the Blazers. Neither guy is going to be worth owning in fantasy, but we'd love to see Morrison win a spot on the Blazers as it would make for a great story.

Adam Morrison said that he would retire if he doesn't make the Trail Blazers. "I'm going to finish school and start coaching (If he didn't make the Trail Blazers roster)...I did the Europe thing and it just wasn't for me," he said. "It's not that bad. Ok, it didn't go well, but it's not like I'm destitute, and broke, and homeless. There's a lot of people who have had worst things happen than not making it in a certain career." Morrison seems at peace with himself and it will be fascinating to see if he sticks with the team, as he reportedly has a legitimate chance to make the roster.

Adam Morrison "will be given a chance" to make the Blazers roster. Apparently, Morrison isn't just a cam body, and the Blazers view him as someone legitimately capable of making the team. It would be a mild surprise to see him make the final roster, but even if he does, he's not on the fantasy radar.

The Blazers signed Adam Morrison to a make-good deal for training camp on Monday. Even though the Blazers have depth issues up front, Morrison has physical limitations and lacks playmaking ability. And besides, already have a younger, better version of Morrison in Luke Babbitt, and he's not likely to do much this season, either.

The Blazers have invited Adam Morrison to their training camp on a non-guaranteed contract. Morrison has a long way to go to prove he belongs on an NBA roster, though he played well in eight games in Turkey last season, averaging 11.8 points in just 22 minutes per game, while shooting 37.5 percent from behind the arc. Even if he makes the roster, he's not a fantasy option.

Adam Morrison, the No. 3 pick in the 2006 draft, will play for the Nets during Summer League.

Adam Morrison headlined a private free-agent workout for the Grizzlies on Monday. Morrison has spent the last two seasons playing in Europe. He worked out for the Nets at the end of May and is still hoping to latch on with a team in the NBA that is willing to give him a shot. He was the No. 3 overall pick in the 2006 draft.
