Who doesn't love a good cryptic tweet right ahead of the trade deadline? For those that appreciate those tweets, you're in luck. Marcus Morris knows all about being on the block during a deadline. The New York Knicks moved the forward last year to the Los Angeles Clippers in exchange for a first-round pick. A year later, Morris' name has been floated about on a couple of occasions, but not nearly as much as last year.
Nonetheless, the Clippers forward seems to have noticed:
Buisness is business. Donāt learn the hard way

What other explanation could there be for this Marcus Morris tweet? The replies are as expected, with everyone speculating about trades for any number of players like Russell Westbrook, Lonzo Ball, Terry Rozier, Ricky Rubio and others.
The best part about these tweets is the often the follow up where the athlete says something like, āThis has nothing to do with the deadline,ā making it seem even more like it has everything to do with being traded.
The Clippers are in the market for a point guard and have been linked to names such as Rozier, Rubio and even George Hill. Sitting in the upper tier of the Western Conference with a record of 28-16, the Clippers are not content. Adding depth at point guard seems to be the top priority for a team with title aspirations.
In 34 games this year, Marcus Morris is averaging 12.1 points per game on a stellar 44.8% from 3-point range. With the Clippers looking to upgrade at guard, it's possible Morris could be on the move.
