Washington Wizards forward/center Markieff Morris scored 28 points (9-of-15 field goals, 6-of-10 3-pointers, 4-of-4 free throws) with 9 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, 1 block, and 1 turnover in a 125-124 overtime win over the Portland Trail Blazers on Monday.
Morris had only made more than 3 triples once in his career entering Monday. Ian Mahinmi left with back spasms and Dwight Howard (back) remains out, so Morris benefitted from extra minutes at the five. He could be in line for a similar role on Wednesday versus the Golden State Warriors.
Keef scored 45.3 FanDuel points on Monday. He is averaging 33.7 FanDuel points per game this season.
