Wizards' Markieff Morris suffered sprained hand on Tuesday night
The Washington Post's Candace Buckner reports that Washington Wizards power forward Markieff Morris suffered a sprained left hand in Tuesday's loss to the Philadelphia 76ers.
What It Means:
Morris was seen wearing a brace on his left hand. He said he injured it when tangled up with Joel Embiid. Though it is something worth noting, there hasn't been anything indicating that Morris will miss Thursday's game against the Boston Celtics. If so, Otto Porter and Mike Scott would likely fill in.
As the Wizards host the Celtics, Morris is projected for 27.5 FanDuel points at a cost of $6,300 from his power forward spot.
