MONTÉ MORRIS NEWS

Questionable Sudnay Morris is questionable for Sunday's game against the Lakers due to left elbow soreness.

Impact Morris was a late addition to the injury report Sunday, but his potential absence is likely precautionary as Denver prepares for a potential playoff run. If Morris is sidelined, Bones Hyland, Facundo Campazzo and Austin Rivers are all candidates for increased roles.

Drops 10 dimes in win Morris racked up six points (1-9 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, 10 assists, one block and two steals across 36 minutes during Sunday's 129-118 victory over the Lakers.

Impact Morris didn't do much in the scoring column, but his 10 assists salvaged his fantasy total in Sunday's victory. The assist total was a season-high for Morris, who only totals 4.4 assists per game. It's a very low average for a starting point guard playing on a winning team

Comes close to double-double Morris recorded 14 points (5-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, nine assists and one steal across 34 minutes during Monday's 113-109 victory over the Hornets.

Impact The nine assists tied a season-high mark for Morris, and this was the first time he recorded more than five dimes since a March 14 win over the 76ers. Despite operating as the point guard, Morris is not the main playmaker for the Nuggets and holds a secondary role in the team's offensive scheme. Thus, his fantasy upside isn't very high and he doesn't carry a ton of value outside of deep formats.

Solid in win Morris chipped in 15 points (6-11 FG, 3-7 3Pt), one rebound, four assists and one steal in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 127-109 win over the Wizards.

Impact in Wednesday's contest, Morris fell in line with his season averages of 13.0 points and 4.3 assists. Although Bones Hyland (17 points, 24 minutes) has been ascending of late, Morris remains the starter and is routinely logging more than 30 minutes per game. His ceiling may be slightly lower than earlier in the season, but Morris can be counted on for this level of production moving forward.

Impact Morris ended as one of the leading scorers for the Nuggets, and the floor general has experienced an uptick in his scoring figures of late. He's recorded 10 or more points in four games in a row, but he's also cleared the 15-point plateau in each of his last three contests.

Nears double-double in win Morris registered 18 points (7-14 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight assists, three rebounds and one block across 36 minutes during Sunday's 138-130 overtime win over the Pelicans.

Impact Morris narrowly missed out on notching his first double-double of the campaign, but his production was a welcome sight nonetheless after he had turned in underwhelming averages of 7.7 points, 2.7 assists, 2.3 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 1.0 three-pointers over the previous three contests. An uptick in playing time had a major hand in Morris' increased production, with the point guard benefiting from the extra period in addition to the early exit of Will Barton (ankle). Morris looks to be more of a back-end roster option in 12-team leagues, and his value will sink further once the likes of Michael Porter (back) and Jamal Murray (knee) make their late-season returns from long-term absences.

The fifth-year guard had missed each of the Nuggets' previous three games due to a concussion, yet he played more minutes than any Denver player aside from Nikola Jokic on Wednesday. Morris is providing moderate fantasy value this season with per-game averages of 12.7 points, 4.3 assists and 3.0 rebounds and 1.6 treys.
