Monte Morris Posts All-Around Line Versus Detroit
Monte Morris posted 19 points in an overtime loss to the Pistons in addition to seven rebounds and seven assists. Morris, who went 8-for-15 from the field in 39 minutes, started his third-straight game as the Nuggets attempt to keep moving in the absence of Jamal Murray, posting double-figures in scoring in his second straight outing. As long as he continues to put up these types of numbers, Denver will continue to trust him with the ball in his hands, making him a quality addition for as long as Murray remains on the mend.

Monte Morris Questionable For Tuesday's Action
Monte Morris (back) is on the injury report with a questionable status ahead of Tuesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. An issue with his lower back may keep Morris out of the lineup for a second straight game. However, he hasn't played in any of the past five games, making Morris irrelevant in fantasy basketball. With Bradley Beal returning to the starting lineup a couple of games ago, Morris has even slipped further down the depth chart.

Monte Morris Questionable Monday
Monte Morris (hamstring) is questionable for Monday's game against the Utah Jazz. The 28-year-old has dealt with hamstring soreness but returned on Saturday after missing three straight contests. If available, Minnesota will likely continue to take a conservative approach with the 28-year-old, who played just 10 minutes and scored two points on Saturday. Should Morris suit up, he will not factor into fantasy play, as he is averaging 4.8 points, 1.6 rebounds, and 2.2 assists across 18 games this season.

Monte Morris Available Saturday Versus Jazz
Monte Morris (hamstring) is available for Saturday's game against the Utah Jazz. The 28-year-old was dealing with hamstring soreness that kept him out for three games. Since joining the T-Wolves in February, Morris has averaged 5.3 points and 2.9 assists in 15.7 minutes. With Morris returning to the rotation, Jordan McLaughlin will likely see less time on the court. Despite the point guard's return, he is not a viable fantasy option for Saturday.

Monte Morris In Danger Of Missing Another Game
Monte Morris (hamstring) has been listed as questionable for Saturday's matchup against Utah. The veteran guard is dealing with hamstring soreness, which has already kept him out for three games. Since joining the T-Wolves in February, Morris has averaged 5.3 points and 2.9 assists in 15.7 minutes. His absence has left the door open for Jordan McLaughlin to play a larger part in the rotation, but he's not a recommended fantasy target.
