Raptors, Lakers, Rockets eyeing Markieff Morris, agent says

Free agent Markieff Morris is receiving interest from the Toronto Raptors, Houston Rockets, and Los Angeles Lakers, his agent, Rich Paul, told Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports.

Morris was cleared to resume basketball activities Monday, having been sidelined since Dec. 26 with transient cervical neurapraxia.

According to Haynes, the eight-year pro is expected to pick his next team this week.

The New Orleans Pelicans waived Morris shortly after acquiring him from the Washington Wizards on Feb. 7.

Morris averaged 11.5 points and 5.1 rebounds in 34 games this season for the Wizards.
