Out with concussion Morris is in the concussion protocol and won't play Friday at Boston, Harrison Wind of TheDNVR.com reports.

Impact Morris presumably suffered the concussion during Tuesday's win over the Knicks, as he had five points (2-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt), one rebound and six assists in 28 minutes. Bones Hyland, Bryn Forbes and Austin Rivers (hip) should see more run in the backcourt for Denver in his absence.

Impact Morris supplied an extremely efficient outing, putting forth an effortless line with a lessened workload. Morris and his co-starters shot a blistering 64.6 percent from the field -- fueling Denver's 60.2 percent shooting overall. Morris remains locked into a full role as the Nuggets' starting point guard.

In January, the point guard is averaging 12.2 points, 4.0 assists and 3.8 rebounds in 30.4 minutes per game. Morris has a firm grasp on the starting point guard gig with Jamal Murray (knee) expected to be out for the majority of the regular season, which should continue to translate into consistent fantasy production.

Impact Morris hasn't taken a major leap this season, but he continues to start for Jamal Murray (knee), and this was one of his best fantasy efforts of the season. In 45 minutes of action, Morris fell just one rebound and one assist short of a triple-double while attempting a season-high 20 field goals. Over his last eight games, Morris is averaging 12.9 points, 3.8 assists, 3.3 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 1.8 threes (34.1% 3Pt).

Serviceable yet unexciting in loss Morris had 13 points (6-13 FG, 1-8 3Pt), six rebounds, two assists and one steal across 29 minutes during Sunday's 125-102 loss to the Jazz.

Impact Morris did just enough to maintain backend 12-team value in the loss, continuing to be one of the more unexciting fantasy assets around. Despite being the starting point guard, he rarely teases us with any semblance of upside, preferring to chug along as the third or fourth wheel. As mentioned, he is fine to have on a 12-team roster but there is almost certainly a better, more promising option available on most waiver wires.
