Knicks Sign Marcus Morris Sr. to Exhibit-9 Contract

The 35-year-old forward returns to New York in a bid to secure a roster spot for the upcoming NBA season.

Marcus Morris Sr. previously played for the Knicks during the 2019-20 season, averaging a career-high 19.6 points per game.
The Exhibit-9 contract is non-guaranteed and allows Morris to compete for a spot on the regular season roster during training camp.
Morris spent last season with the Philadelphia 76ers and Cleveland Cavaliers, averaging 6.4 points and 2.7 rebounds over 49 games.
The Knicks also signed guard Landry Shamet to an Exhibit-9 contract, with both players vying for the final roster spot.
Morris’s veteran presence is seen as valuable for the Knicks, who are looking to build on their strong performance last season.
