In Monte Morris’ second NBA season, he is getting his tryout with the Denver Nuggets. He is performing pretty well through the first games so far, in fact, he is a big reason for the Nuggets 4-0 start.
With Isaiah Thomas missing the beginning of the season with a hip injury, Morris has been the main backup point guard. In this role, he has earned 20 minutes a game. He is posting 6.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists, and .5 turnovers (surprise, surprise) per game.
However, his shooting has struggled to this point, Morris is only connecting on 32.
