Flops with George, Leonard out Morris tallied 10 points (3-9 FG, 4-4 FT), five rebounds and one steal in 24 minutes off the bench Tuesday in the Clippers' 108-99 loss to the Hawks.

Impact Given that Kawhi Leonard and Paul George were both sitting out due to the NBA's health and safety protocols for COVID-19, Morris' usage rate (21 percent) and overall output registered as a disappointment. Although Morris should still benefit to some degree if the two co-stars remained sidelined throughout LA's six-game road trip, Reggie Jackson, Lou Williams and Luke Kennard proved to be the bigger winners Tuesday.

Lifted from injury report Morris (illness) doesn't appear on the Clippers' injury report ahead of Tuesday's game at Atlanta, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Impact Morris sat out Sunday's 108-100 win over the Thunder with a stomach ailment, but his absence from the report suggests the veteran forward is feeling healthy again as Tuesday's contest approaches. Meanwhile, stars Kawhi Leonard and Paul George (hamstring) have been ruled out for Tuesday due to COVID-19 health and safety protocols, though it's unclear if either tested positive for the virus. In any case, their absences for at least one game should clear the way for the likes of Morris, Lou Williams and Luke Kennard to see healthy bumps in minutes and usage.

Ruled out Sunday Morris won't play in Sunday's game against the Thunder due to a stomach illness, Andrew Greif of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact Morris will miss his first game since Jan. 5 while he recovers from the ailment. The setback doesn't sound especially serious, so the expectation is that Morris will be ready to go for the Clippers' next game Tuesday in Atlanta.

Erupts for 20 off bench Morris recorded 20 points (7-11 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 2-3 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal across 27 minutes in Sunday's 129-96 win over the Pacers.

Impact The blowout and the absence of Lou Williams (hip) paved the way for Morris and Luke Kennard (20 points) to take on some extra usage on the second unit, and both came through with strong offensive nights. The Clippers appear committed to keeping Nicolas Batum as their starting power forward, but playing fewer minutes alongside Kawhi Leonard and Paul George shouldn't hurt Morris too much from a scoring standpoint. Through six games off the bench, Morris is averaging 11.8 points on 45.5 percent shooting from the field.
