Doubtful for Wednesday Morris (back) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game against Houston.

Impact Morris is expected to miss his fourth consecutive contest due to a back injury. The 29-year-old point guard has received little playing time of late, so his potential absence shouldn't cause any waves in the rotation.

Won't play Sunday Morris (back) won't play Sunday against the Hornets.

Impact Morris remains out due to a back problem and is set to miss a 12th straight contest. His next chance to play will come Monday against the Grizzlies in the second leg of a back-to-back set, but even if he's deemed ready to return, his chances of making an impact in fantasy are slim to none.

Sitting out Friday The Suns list Morris out for Friday's game against the Nuggets due to low back injury management.

Impact Morris first appeared on the injury report in late February on account of lower-back soreness, and he proceeded to sit out four straight games before being cleared to play in advance of this past Sunday's 116-98 loss to the Timberwolves. The veteran point guard didn't see the floor in a coach's decision and went unused again in Tuesday's win over the Clippers, despite being available. He's now back on the injury report for Friday's game, though Morris looks like he'll remain outside of the rotation whenever he finally moves past the back issue.

MARCH 7, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go Sunday Morris (back) is available for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves.

Impact Morris will return to the lineup after missing the last eight games due to a back injury. Morris doesn't figure to have a major role considering he saw just 9.8 minutes per contest over his last four appearances, not to mention the time he has missed.

Earns questionable tag Morris (back) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Pelicans, Gerald Bourguet of GoPHNX.com reports.

Impact Morris has missed the last eight games for the Suns, so even if he has a questionable tag for Sunday, it's unclear if he'll end up playing. Even if he does, he'll only be a bench option, so his fantasy upside shouldn't be very high.

Ruled out against New Orleans Morris (back) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Pelicans.

Impact Morris will miss an eighth straight game for the Suns as he deals with a back issue. The veteran guard has been in and out of the lineup all season. When healthy, he hasn't made much of an impact from a fantasy perspective, averaging 4.9 points, 1.4 rebounds, and 1.7 assists per game.

Impact Thursday will mark a third absence in a row for Morris, who is still managing a back injury. The veteran guard's next opportunity to take the floor arrives in Friday's meeting with the Pelicans. Morris' absence won't have a major impact on Phoenix's rotation, but Tyus Jones sets up as the top backup point guard.

Iffy for Tuesday Morris (back) is questionable for Tuesday's game against Memphis, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact Morris is in jeopardy of missing his second consecutive contest due to low back soreness. The veteran point guard didn't play in four straight outings due to a coach's decision before the absence streak, so another potential absence likely wouldn't cause any waves in the rotation.

Ruled out Sunday Morris (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raptors, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Impact Morris will miss Sunday's game due to back soreness, though his absence won't impact the Suns' rotation as he was a healthy DNP in each of the last four games. His next chance to see the floor will be Tuesday against the Grizzlies.

Questionable to play Sunday Morris is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Raptors due to lower back soreness, Gerald Bourguet of GoPHNX.com reports.

Impact Morris has been a healthy DNP in each of the Suns' last four games, so his absence Sunday wouldn't have a huge impact on Phoenix's rotation. He's appeared in 40 games for the Suns and has averaged 4.9 points, 1.7 assists and 1.4 rebounds over 13.1 minutes per game.

Ties season-high in expanded role Morris dropped 12 points (3-5 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT) through 22 minutes in the 126-108 loss to the Pacers on Saturday.

Impact With Tyus Jones (illness) out of the lineup, it opened up an opportunity for Morris to step up. He hit his season-high points total for the third time this season, but failed to contribute in other areas, making it a mostly lackluster fantasy night for the backup guard. Morris will likely continue to see an increased role in the offense if Jones is to miss any further time. Jones' next chance to suit up comes Monday against the 76ers.

Scores 11 points off bench Morris notched 11 points (3-8 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, three assists and two steals across 18 minutes during Wednesday's 110-100 victory over the Nuggets.

Impact Morris made the most of his 18 minutes off the bench in this Christmas win and reached double-digit scoring figures for the fourth time this season. That said, he rarely logs more than 20 minutes and isn't very efficient as a shooter, so one strong showing isn't going to dramatically improve his fantasy prospects -- even if the Suns are depleted in their backcourt due to the absence of Devin Booker (groin). Expect Morris to maintain a low-end fantasy upside as long as he remains in this bench role.
