Markieff Morris returns to Wizards' first unit, sends Jason Smith to bench
Washington Wizards forward/center Markieff Morris (illness) will return to the starting five for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics, sending Jason Smith back to the bench.
Morris missed the previous two games due to the flu. He's not expected to be on any sort of minutes limit upon return and should be worth owning in most formats with four games scheduled this week and the next. Smith falls back to irrelevance with Morris back.
numberFire's models project him to record 13.4 points, 6.6 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.1 steals in 31.8 minutes versus Boston.
