Morris totaled three points (1-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one steal across 12 minutes during Wednesday's 126-97 win over the Trail Blazers.
EDGE Analysis
Morris cracked the rotation for just the second time in the past seven games, called upon as the Mavericks ran away with the victory. Given he is outside the top 400 this season, managers can rest assured he is not worth considering in fantasy, even in the deepest of leagues.

Morris will head back to the bench for Saturday's game against the Spurs.
EDGE Analysis
The Mavericks are still without Dereck Lively (ankle), but they will deploy a smaller frontcourt featuring Grant Williams and Derrick Jones. Morris was quiet in a spot start Friday, scoring four points with two rebounds in 12 minutes.

Morris is part of the first unit for Friday's game against the Rockets.
EDGE Analysis
After entering the Dallas rotation in December amidst the absences of Maxi Kleber (toe), Josh Green (elbow) and most recently Dereck Lively (ankle), he'll make his first start of the season. Over his last five appearances, Morris is averaging 2.8 points and 2.6 rebounds over 11.5 minutes.

Morris ended with zero points (0-1 FG) and two rebounds across five minutes during Wednesday's 120-111 loss to the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
Morris continues to see minutes for the Mavericks despite the fact he has minimal upside. Now aged 34, Morris is well outside the top 300 this season, making him a non-factor even in the deepest of fantasy leagues.

Morris (illness) is available for Sunday's game against Charlotte.
EDGE Analysis
Morris was questionable for Sunday's matchup due to a non-COVID illness, but he'll be able to play through the issue. He hasn't been a significant part of the team's rotation this year.

The Mavericks list Morris (non-COVID-19-related illness) as questionable for Sunday's game against the Hornets.
EDGE Analysis
Morris missed Friday's 125-114 loss to the Nuggets with the illness, but the Mavericks will wait and see how he feels closer to Sunday's 7:30 p.m. ET tipoff before determining if he'll be available. The veteran forward hasn't been part of the Mavericks' rotation all season and likely won't be featured on the second unit even if he's cleared in advance of the opening tip.

Morris (illness) will not play in Friday's game against Denver.
EDGE Analysis
Morris hasn't seen any action for Dallas so far this season, so his absence won't have many fantasy implications.

Morris is questionable for Friday's game against the Nuggets due to a non-COVID illness.
EDGE Analysis
Morris has yet to see any game action, so his potential absence wouldn't have much of an impact on Dallas' rotation. However, if he's cleared, Morris could actually see some playing time, as Maxi Kleber (toe) has been downgraded to out.

Morris (ankle) was able to play in Friday's preseason game against Detroit.
EDGE Analysis
Morris sat out Dallas' preseason game back on Oct. 7, but it was always considered a minor setback. Morris is a long shot to crack Dallas' rotation for Opening Night. He finished with four points and one three-pointer during seven minutes of action Friday.

Morris is out for Saturday's preseason game versus the Timberwolves due to left ankle soreness.
EDGE Analysis
Morris doesn't appear to have suffered a serious injury, so his next chance to suit up will be a preseason matchup with Detroit on Oct. 20. The veteran forward isn't expected to play significant minutes for Dallas this season.
