The Detroit Pistons have made another pebble splash into the pond of one of the best free agency groups in recent memory. The team has agreed to terms with free-agent power forward Markieff Morris. According to The Athletic’s James Edwards III, Morris’s deal uses the bi-annual exception. Essentially, this means he signed a two-year deal worth roughly $3.6 million a year.
Morris spent last season with the Washington Wizards until he was traded to the New Orleans Pelicans, who promptly cut him. This paved the way for Morris to sign with the Oklahoma City Thunder, where he didn’t really have much of an impact.
