Rockets send Morris to D-League

[jonathanlambert33]

Houston Rockets General Manager Daryl Morey announced that the team has assigned forward Marcus Morris to their D-League team, the Rio Grande Valley Vipers, on Tuesday.

Tuesday's assignment for Morris was his first to the D-League and a bit surprising, since he was the 14th overall pick in last summer's NBA Draft. Keep Morris off your radar until he can make his return to the Rockets.

way to give him a shot.

he wasn't going to get much PT with Scola, Patterson & Hill playing well.. kind of why i questioned that pick in the first place

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Especially with Leonard still available.

 

[DJT]

He's gonna kill in the d-league.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Who was the last player that was sent to the DLeague and was successful?

 

[jonathanlambert33]

In the actual league I mean.

 

[elcheato]

Reggie Williams is solid

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Correct

 

[Pugz]

the pick was iffy to me. i just hope he can get a shot on the team or traded so he can.

 

[Mexi]

In the actual league I mean.

there are a ton

JJB, Shannon Brown, Brandon Bass, Farmar i remember, Anthony Tolliver recently, Sundiata Gaines was starting the other day for New Jersey

plenty more

 

[DJT]

Ramon Sessions as well

 

[elcheato]

Ramon Sessions actually looks good this year, I'm pretty shocked.

 

[DJT]

I thought he's looked good for awhile, well scoring that is. I hope he can start dishing the ball well.

 

[The Young One]

No big deal...They did this with Brooks and PP. Just some time to get him set to be a 3.

This is fine with me. He's awful small to be a PF anyway.
