Sources: Markieff Morris, Pistons agree to deal

The Detroit Pistons added some frontcourt depth Wednesday, agreeing to a two-year deal with veteran forward Markieff Morris, ESPN has confirmed.

The deal was first reported by The Athletic.

Morris, 29, split last season between the Washington Wizards and Oklahoma City Thunder, averaging 9.4 points and 4.6 rebounds in 58 games.

Before this past season, Morris had enjoyed a string of eight straight seasons averaging double figures in points. The 6-foot-10 forward also has shown the ability to knock down the deep ball, averaging 1.0 per contest on 35.1% shooting in his three-plus seasons with Washington before the OKC trade.
