2001 Scouting Report:
Strengths: Morris has a versatile offensive game one that lets him go inside the paint or float out to the perimeter ... Became a much better defender this year with his timing, long arms, and wonderful vertical allow his to become a shot blocking threat ... Plays with a lot of intelligence not a player who seems to let things bother him which speaks about his maturity ... Can shoot the 3-point shot with relative ease although I wouldn't say he is shooter ... Very athletic runs the floor like a deer and can jump like pogo stick ... Above average rebounder thanks in part to those long arms and good jumping ability ... Has solid fundamentals such as ball handling, shooting, passing and post footwork ... Will have good height for playing the small forward position standing at 6-9 ... Can create for himself thanks to his dribble skills that includes a nice spin move that he often gets most defenders on ... Good free throw shooter ...
Weakness: Morris is a poster boy of why kids go pro early had he left after his sophomore or junior year he would go in the high to mid lottery now he looks more of a late first to early second round pick ... Doesn't have that killer take over the game attitude often he plays passive ... Inconsistent is the one thing Morris brings some days he looks like a bona fide star other days he looks like a role player ... Could stand to use some added body strength many times he had problems with physical play ... Doesn't always shoot the ball with the best form could stand to use his legs more when shooting ... Not much of a back to the basket player so it would be in his best interest to focus more on his post up skills ...
