Lakers' Markieff Morris: Not in starting lineup Saturday
Morris is not in the starting lineup for Game 1 against the Timberwolves on Saturday, Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times reports.
The Lakers rested most of their regulars for the regular-season finale against the Trail Blazers on April 13, meaning Morris was among the starters in that game. Still, the veteran will return to his regular bench role. Morris isn't expected to have a sizable role out of the bench with Dorian Finney-Smith and Rui Hachimura ahead of him in the pecking order.

Lakers' Markieff Morris: Starting Sunday vs. Portland
Morris is in the Lakers' starting lineup against the Trail Blazers on Sunday, Daniel Starkand of LakersNation.com reports.
Morris hasn't been part of the Lakers' rotation for much of the season, but he'll make his second start Sunday while multiple players rest. In his first start against the Bucks on March 20, Morris finished with nine points, four rebounds, two assists and one block over 28 minutes.

Lakers' Markieff Morris: Back to bench role
Morris is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Bulls, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
Morris made his first start of the season in Thursday's loss to the Bulls, but the veteran forward will return to his regular bench role with the Lakers playing all their regulars once again. Morris isn't expected to see enough minutes to be a reliable fantasy asset in most formats.

Lakers' Markieff Morris: Making first start of season
Morris is in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Bucks, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reports.
Morris has barely played this season, but he'll get the starting nod for the second night of this back-to-back set since the Lakers will be extremely depleted in the frontcourt. This will be the 14-year veteran's first start of the season.

Lakers' Markieff Morris: Removed from injury report
Morris has been cleared to play in Saturday's game against the Celtics, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.
Morris has played only three games for the Lakers since being traded to Los Angeles last month, averaging 6.7 minutes per game. From a fantasy perspective, the veteran big man has been a non-factor and likely won't be for the rest of the season as he rarely sees the floor.

Lakers' Markieff Morris: Still sidelined
Morris (illness) won't play in Thursday's game against New York, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.
Morris will miss a second consecutive game due to illness. Considering he hasn't appeared in a game since Feb 12, his absence shouldn't have much rotational impact. Morris' next chance to play will come Saturday at Boston.

Lakers' Markieff Morris: Ruled out with illness
Morris (illness) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Pelicans.
Morris hasn't been a factor for the Lakers since being traded to Los Angeles by the Mavericks last month. The veteran big man has seen the floor only three times for his new team since arriving, and now he's battling an illness that will keep him sidelined again Tuesday.

Lakers' Markieff Morris: Could make Lakers debut Tuesday
Morris (recently traded) is not on the injury report for Tuesday's game against the Clippers, Daniel Starkand of LakersNation.com reports.
The veteran big man is expected to be available to make his Lakers debut after having been included in the trade that sent Anthony Davis (abdomen) and Max Christie to the Mavericks in exchange for Morris, Luka Doncic (calf) and Maxi Kleber (foot). Morris averaged 5.9 minutes per game over seven appearances with the Mavericks. However, he could see a bump in playing time with Los Angeles, as the Lakers are fairly thin in the frontcourt.

Lakers' Markieff Morris: Shipped to L.A.
The Lakers acquired Morris, Luka Doncic (calf) and Maxi Kleber (foot) from the Mavericks on Saturday in exchange for Anthony Davis (abdomen), Max Christie and a 2029 first-round pick, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
The Jazz will also receive Jalen Hood-Schifino (hamstring) and two 2025 second-round picks to help facilitate the blockbuster trade centered around Doncic and Davis. Morris hasn't seen much playing time in Dallas this season, but he'll get a fresh start with the Lakers alongside Doncic, LeBron James and Austin Reaves. Morris was traded by the Pistons to the Lakers during the 2019-20 campaign and won his only championship with the team at the NBA Bubble that October.
