Suns' Monte Morris: Ties season high in expanded role

Morris dropped 12 points (3-5 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT) through 22 minutes in the 126-108 loss to the Pacers on Saturday.

With Tyus Jones (illness) out of the lineup, an opportunity for Morris to step up presented itself. He hit his season-high points total for the third time this season but failed to contribute in other areas, making it a mostly lackluster fantasy night for the backup guard. Morris will likely continue to see an increased role in the offense if Jones is to miss any further time.
