Wizards' Markieff Morris (illness) won't return Saturday against Hornets
Washington Wizards power forward/center Markieff Morris will not return to Saturday's game, reports Chris Miller of NBC Sports.
What It Means:
Morris came down with flu-like symptoms, which sent him to the locker room early on during Saturday's home tilt. He finishes with just three points, three rebounds and a steal in nine minutes. Mike Scott, Otto Porter and Kelly Oubre stand to benefit in his absence.
At $5,900, Morris finished the game with 6.6 FanDuel points. He was originally projected for 23.1 in 27.1 minutes.
