Morris Twins Charged With Felony Aggravated Assault

Whatever your opinion on the Morris twins, their future with the Phoenix Suns got a little bit more complicated today.

According to ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne, Markieff Morris and Marcus Morris have been charged with felony aggravated assault for the Jan. 24 incident involving Erik Hood, a former mentor to the twins. The Morrii had been investigated in the incident, but no charges had been brought forward — until now.

Five men are being charged in the alleged assault at a local recreation center. The other three have been identified as Gerald Bowman, a former safety at USC who was preparing for the 2015 NFL Draft, Julius Kane and Christopher Melendez.
