For the ones closely monitoring the NBA, a popular name who is currently on the doldrums is Markieff "Keef" Morris of the Phoenix Suns.
The latest news about Keef is that he was fined by the NBA for his remarks, making public his displeasure and, of course, his wish to be traded to another team by the Suns.
To recall, Keef became livid when the Suns sent his brother Marcus Morris to the Detroit Pistons. Apparently, both Keef and Marcus agreed to a smaller pay just to ensure that they would both be playing on the same team, which in that case was the Suns.
But in the NBA, anything is possible and anyone is subject to trade. Of the two, Keef was obviously the one churning out the better numbers and hence was retained.
However, the Suns didn't seem to consider the repercussions of the move. And now, they find themselves with a disgruntled player who wants out.
Keef did say he would have preference to play for the Houston Rockets because of James Harden or the Toronto Raptors to play alongside Kyle Lowry. But what if the Suns send Keef as well to the Pistons? Could that work?
A report from Hoops Rumors reveals that the Washington Wizards and the Detroit Pistons could be ideal landing spots for Markieff Morris.
The Wizards could make good use of Morris, considering the team has no prominent stars up front.
As for the Pistons, the option is a no brainer. The twins could end up playing together once more and seeing how coach Stan Van Gundy puts power forwards to good use, it seems like a win-win situation on their end.
But the thing is what could the Pistons offer in return just in case the Suns would bite?
