It didn’t take long for Markieff Morris to find a new home in the NBA a team after being bought out by the Detroit Pistons on Friday afternoon.
Morris is the twin brother of Marcus Morris, whom the Lakers, among other teams, were trying to trade for at the deadline.
After losing out on Marcus, the Lakers countering with Markieff definitely checks off a couple of important playoff boxes.
Again, they missed on Marcus Morris.
Markieff doesn’t fill that role, but come playoff time, the defensive size on the wing and floor spacing is probably more important.
