Iffy for Tuesday Morris (foot) is questionable for Tuesday's game against Golden State, Austin Krell of USA Today reports.

Impact Morris continues to deal with plantar fasciitis in his left foot. He's appeared in back-to-back games after missing the prior two contests, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him sidelined again for the second half of a back-to-back set. He scored nine points (3-7 FG) in 22 minutes during Monday's blowout loss to Portland.

Impact Morris sat out Monday's 133-123 win over the Spurs due to a bout of plantar fasciitis in his left foot, but his presence in practice a day later suggests the issue isn't a particularly concerning one.

Pops for season-high 17 Morris posted 17 points (4-9 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four rebounds and one assist across 26 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 139-132 overtime loss to the Hawks.

Impact It was the best scoring effort of the season for the veteran forward, although he did need an extra five minutes of game time to get there. Morris has seen a bigger role in the Philly rotation of late and has seen his production creep up a bit, and he's scored in double digits each of the last four times he's played at least 20 minutes. Unless the team gets wracked by injuries however, Morris is unlikely to approach the 28.1 minutes a game he was seeing as recently as last season with the Clippers.

Good to go Wednesday Morris (illness) is available for Wednesday's game versus the Timberwolves, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Impact Morris has been upgraded from questionable to available Wednesday after missing Philadelphia's previous game due to an illness. With Nicolas Batum (hamstring) out, Morris is a candidate to receive increased minutes against Minnesota.

DECEMBER 20, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Wednesday Morris (illness) was not able to practice Tuesday and is questionable for Wednesday's game against Minnesota.

Impact Robert Covington is in the same boat as Morris, as neither forward practiced which leaves their status in the air. Both players are candidates to step up Wednesday, however, as Nicolas Batum has already been ruled out with a hamstring issue.

Questionable for Monday Morris is questionable for Monday's game against the Bulls due to an illness.

Impact The 76ers are mostly healthy for Monday's game apart from Morris. The veteran forward usually sees minutes in the teens for the 76ers, but we could see Robert Covington, Paul Reed and Nicolas Batum pick up a handful of minutes if Morris is forced to sit.

Tallies 15 points in 15 minutes Morris closed with 15 points (5-8 FG, 5-5 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal across 15 minutes during Friday's 124-92 win over the Pistons.

Impact Morris couldn't miss from deep Friday, draining all five of his three-point attempts in the blowout win. He finished with his highest scoring performance thus far in December and notched double-digit points for just the second time in his past five contests. Morris hasn't played more than 16 minutes in any game during that span, severely limiting his fantasy viability.
