Wizards' Markieff Morris expected to play 24 minutes on Tuesday night

Per The Washington Post's Candace Buckner, Washington Wizards coach Scott Brooks expects to play forward/center Markieff Morris 24 minutes on Tuesday against the Dallas Mavericks.

What It Means:

Morris has been limited to 14 and 17 minutes since returning from offseason hernia surgery. It appears that he's made it through the first two games without a setback so the Wizards will bump up his minutes for game three. That will leave Otto Porter to play more small forward as Kelly Oubre's minutes take a hit.

Our models project Morris to tally 10.4 points, 5.4 rebounds and 21.4 FanDuel points in 23.9 minutes. He costs $4,400 in his home matchup against the Mavericks.
