Tallies team-high 29 points Morris contributed 29 points (11-16 FG, 6-7 3Pt, 1-4 FT), seven rebounds and three assists in 36 minutes during Thursday's 111-110 win over the Lakers.
Impact Morris enjoyed one of his most efficient shooting performances of the season in the victory, knocking down 11 of 16 field-goal attempts and tying a season high with six three-pointers. The veteran forward's final triple came with 18 seconds remaining and gave the Clippers a one-point lead as part of a frenetic final minute. Morris continues to have a major offensive role for the Clippers in the absence of Paul George (elbow) and Kawhi Leonard (knee).

Impact Making his return from a three-game absence, Morris was part of a balanced scoring attack for the Clippers, who had five players reach double figures and none with more than 19 points. Before taking some time to tend to the personal matter, Morris had been operating as LA's primary option on offense following Paul George's (elbow) exit from the lineup in late December. Over his last 13 outings, Morris has averaged 17.3 points and 1.9 three-pointers while hitting 89.3 percent of his free throws on 4.3 attempts per game. He should remain a plus contributor in all three of those categories at least until George returns, which isn't expected to happen until after the All-Star break.

Falters in loss Morris finished with four points (0-9 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one steal across 24 minutes during Sunday's 110-102 loss to New York.
Impact Morris generated his only points at the free-throw line, failing to connect on all nine of his shot attempts. Morris is typically able to negate a poor shooting performance with a high rebound count, but he was unable to get anything going in that category either. Sunday was one of Morris' worst showings this season, but as long as Paul George (elbow) remains absent, nights like this will be an aberration.

Impact Morris returned to the starting lineup Friday after a one-game absence due to personal reasons. He scored in double figures and was one rebound shy of his third double-double. In January, the 6-foot-8 forward is averaging 17.1 points, 5.3 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 30.8 minutes. As long as Paul George (elbow) remains sidelined, Morris is expected to be relied upon heavily to create offense for the Clippers.
