The New York Knicks could be undermanned when they take the floor against the vaunted Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday. According to Chris Iseman of NJ.com, Marcus Morris Sr. is listed as doubtful with a sore neck.
Morris has been one of the Knicks’ most consistent players all season long. He’s averaging 19.1 points per game on 46.9% shooting from three-point range.
In addition to his exceptional play on the court, Morris is going to be an intriguing name to watch as the Feb. 6 trade deadline approaches. The veteran is only on a one-year deal and could serve as a way to acquire more draft capital, but reports indicate that the Knicks are not dead set on trading Morris.
