Washington Wizards Forward Markieff Morris Avoids Charges For Marijuana Incident

Bringing weed to the airport usually doesn’t end well.

Washington Wizards forward Markieff Morris, whom the team acquired before the NBA Trade Deadline this past season from the Phoenix Suns, was recently caught in a sticky icky situation at the Philadelphia International Airport.

Before we get into the actual incident, it’s important to break down why the alleged circumstance is important as it relates to Morris.

Morris signed a relatively cheap long-term deal with the Suns.

In today’s league, players of Morris’ caliber get anywhere from $11-15 million annually, especially since the salary cap is going to explode this summer.
