Marcus Morris: A Veteran Presence

 

Marcus Morris, a seasoned NBA veteran, is no stranger to the Knicks. He previously played for New York during the 2019-2020 season, where he averaged an impressive 19.6 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 1.4 assists per game. His ability to score efficiently and his defensive prowess made him a valuable asset. Morris’ return to the Knicks on a one-year Exhibit 9 contract signifies a strategic move by the team to bolster their frontcourt depth and add a reliable veteran presence.

The Exhibit 9 Contract: What It Means

The Exhibit 9 contract is a non-guaranteed deal typically used for training camp purposes. This means that while Morris will compete for a roster spot, his place on the team is not assured. However, given his experience and skill set, he has a strong chance of making the final roster. The Knicks’ decision to bring back Morris highlights their need for a versatile forward who can stretch the floor and provide leadership both on and off the court.
