Morrow scored 17 points (6-11 FG, 1-2 3P, 4-4 FT) with 10 rebounds, two assists and a steal in 29 minutes off the bench during Monday's loss to the Warriors.
It's just his second double-double of the season. Morrow's been seeing more court tine lately, averaging 26.4 minutes, 11.6 points, 3.7 boards and 1.9 threes over the last seven games, but Monday's trade for Dion Waiters will likely have a big impact on his spot in the Thunder's wing rotation.

Morrow came off the bench and played 33 minutes, scoring 16 points (5-11 FG, 2-5 3PT, 4-5 FT), with 12 rebounds and 2 steals.
Given the Thunder's injury situation, Morrow has made the most of the minutes he has received. That all being said, it might come to an end once Durant and Westbrook come back and put the rest of the rotation back in order. However, it is encouraging to see that he is playing much more minutes than any other reserve for the Thunder, so we could actually be looking at a player who will find himself in the rotation for the forseeable future. If he can continue to be productive from the land of plenty, it may just add to his value.

Morrow scored 28 points (11-16 FG, 4-5 3P, 2-2 FT) with five rebounds in 31 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's win over the Celtics.
Jeremy Lamb started but played just 17 minutes as Thunder coach Scott Brooks rode the hot hand, and with the club desperate for scoring Morrow could work his way into the starting lineup in short order, or at least continue to see starter's minutes. Morrow has proven in the past he can provide some fantasy value as a long-range specialist when he gets regular court time, so if you need help in that category you may want to scoop him up quickly.
Wed Nov 12 201418:20Morrow could play up to 30 Wednesday night against Celtics
Morrow could play up to 30 Wednesday night against the Celtics, Darnell Mayberry of the Oklahoman reports.
Morrow played just 14 minutes in his season debut Tuesday against the Bucks, but could see nearly double those minutes Wednesday evening. With the Thunder's bleak injury situation, Morrow represents another candidate to see extra minutes until their stars can get healthy.

Morrow (Knee) made his season debut on Tuesday, coming off the bench to score 10 points (4-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT) with one turnover in 14 minutes.
Morrow didn't really do to much, after returning from a sprained MCL to start off the year. However, he didn't make many mistakes either, which is encouraging to see from a player coming back off of an injury. Look for Morrow to be eased along into the Thunder's rotation, as he could be a source of scoring and threes for those who need it.
Tue Nov 11 201418:34Morrow (knee) will be available to play Tuesday against Bucks
Morrow (knee) will be available to play Tuesday against the Bucks, Fox Sports Wisconsin reports.
Morrow has yet to play a regular season game after spraining his MCL during the preseason, but will finally make his debut on Tuesday against the Bucks. He'll start the season coming off the bench, and could be a candidate for limited minutes considering it's his first game back from the injury.
Sun Nov 9 201417:24Morrow (knee) ruled out for Sunday's game against Kings
Morrow (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Kings, Anthony Slater of The Oklahoman reports.
Morrow, who sprained his MCL the week before the regular season began, was back at practice Saturday and considered questionable heading into Sunday's game. However, he's still not quite ready to return, and will join Andre Roberson and Perry Jones as inactives. When Morrow does return, however, he could have decent value as a three-point shooter in the short-term while the Thunder are still banged up.
Sat Nov 8 201414:14Morrow (knee) practiced Saturday and could play Sunday
Morrow (knee) practiced Saturday and could play Sunday, the Oklahoman's Anthony Slater reports.
Once Morrow is healthy enough to take the court, he should be given a bevy of minutes, as half the Thunder's roster is out with injuries. He should be useful in points and three-point shooting.

Morrow sat out once again Friday against the Grizzlies with a left MCL sprain.
Although Morrow practiced Thursday, Morrow never made it into the game. However, the Thunder are only playing with eight active players currently, so they'll likely use him as soon as he's ready. His next chance to return to action is on Sunday versus the Kings.
Thu Nov 6 201414:20Morrow (knee) partial participant in Thursday's practice
Morrow (knee) was a partial participant in Thursday's practice, Anthony Slater of The Oklahoman reports.
Morrow, who is yet to play this season after spraining his MCL during the presaeson, is getting closer to returning but is unlikely to take the floor Friday against the Grizzlies, though he hasn't been officially ruled out. The depleted Thunder could certainly use Morrow's presence, and he seems destined to return sometime in the near future.
Fri Oct 24 201417:18Morrow suffered sprained MCL at practice Thursday and will miss ...
Morrow suffered a sprained MCL at practice Thursday and will miss the start of the regular season, the Oklahoman reports.
Morrow was poised to start at small forward to begin the season with Kevin Durant out, but with the recent MCL injury, he'll have to wait for his opportunity to show his new organization and teammates what he can do. Perry Jones will probably take over the starting small forward postion for the Thunder until either Durant or Morrow can return.
Fri Oct 17 201418:49Morrow may open season as Thunder's starting small forward
Morrow may open the season as the Thunder's starting small forward, the Oklahoman's Anthony Slater reports.
He is expected to return from a minor ankle injury Friday and would start at small forward. While Perry Jones offers superior size and athleticism at the three, the Thunder may value Morrow's experience and long-range shooting. The big backcourt of Russell Westbrook and Andre Roberson should help make up for the 6-foot-5 Morrow's lack of size at the three, and he should offer fantasy owners significant three-point shooting in Kevin Durant's absence through the first month or so of the regular season.

Morrow will miss Thursday's preseason game against the Pelicans due to a left ankle injury, The Oklahoman reports.
Morrow's ankle injury is not considered serious and the sharpshooter could very well return for Friday's tilt versus Toronto. In wake of Kevin Durant (foot) being sidelined, Morrow is expected to help fill the Thunder's perimeter shooting void, making him of value in corresponding fantasy categories.
Sat Jul 12 201413:34Anthony Morrow agrees to sign w/ Thunder
Anthony Morrow has agreed to sign with the Thunder, according to beat writer Darnell Mayberry.
Contract details should be forthcoming soon. Morrow gives them OKC a bona fide sniper who made 45.1 percent of his 3-pointers last season. Fully one-third of his offensive usage came on spot-up jumpers, so he should fare well alongside Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant. It remains to be seen whether he'll overtake Jeremy Lamb for the starting SG job, and it's a position battle worth watching in the preseason.

Thu Jul 10 201421:57Morrow considering LA, MIA, WAS, PHX & TOR
Anthony Morrow is still considering the Clippers, Heat, Wizards, Raptors and Suns.
The teams are reportedly looking to use the mid-level exception on him, which may rule out the Suns because they're expected to use it on P.J. Tucker. Morrow has been one of the best 3-point shooters in the NBA and would be a good fit on any team. He won't be worth drafting in most fantasy formats, though.

Sat Jul 5 201412:29Heat to speak with UFA Anthony Morrow
The Heat are scheduled to speak with unrestricted free agent Anthony Morrow.
He's arguably the best 3-point shooter on the market, which is something the Heat could use now that Shane Battier is retired. Morrow picked up some extra playing time while the Pelicans were severely injured and showed he's capable of playing solid minutes. Still, he wouldn't be asked to play a featured role with the Heat.

Thu Jul 3 201415:59Anthony Morrow getting interest from teams
Unrestricted free agent Anthony Morrow is getting interest from the Heat and Thunder.
The Magic were also interested in Morrow, but signing Ben Gordon hurts their chances. Morrow is one of the better 3-point shooters on the free agent market and would help either team's second unit. The Heat are believed to be the favorites for Morrow and a deal could be done in the near future.

Wed Jul 2 201409:40FA Anthony Morrow pursued by 12 teams
Free agent SG Anthony Morrow has reportedly drawn interest from 12 teams since free agency opened on Tuesday.
The Pistons were immediately linked to Morrow, but they're likely out of the running after signing Cartier Martin and Jodie Meeks. Morrow averaged only 8.4 points with the Pelicans last season and he's not a very versatile player, but he hit 1.2 triples on 45.1 percent shooting beyond the arc and his 3-point shooting should allow him to carve out a 20-minute role wherever he lands.

Tue Jul 1 201410:32Anthony Morrow will meet with Detroit Pistons
Unrestricted free agent Anthony Morrow is set to meet with the Detroit Pistons.
Morrow is expected to meet with the Pistons "early" in the free agent process and would provide a solid shooter off the bench for Detroit after finishing fourth in the NBA in 3-point percentage last season. Morrow only played 18.8 minutes per game last season, but could be a cheap source of threes for fantasy owners if he finds himself in a situation where he's playing upwards of 25 minutes.

Fri Jun 20 201409:22Pelicans confirm Anthony Morrow opts out
The Pelicans confirmed that Anthony Morrow has opted out of his contract.
He will be an unrestricted free agent after he just received over the veteran minimum last year. Morrow was big for the depleted Pelicans team in April, averaging 15.1 points, 3.4 boards, 1.0 steals and 1.6 triples on 48.9 percent from the field. He should get plenty of interest with his career 3-point shooting percentage of 42.8.
