The Washington Wizards may have erased a 24-point deficit against the L.A. Clippers on Tuesday to win their sixth game of the season, but small forward Markieff Morris says that doesn't change what's going on behind the scenes.
In case you missed it, the Wizards are a walking disaster right now. All-Star point guard John Wall and small forward Kelly Oubre Jr. recently cursed out head coach Scott Brooks. Wall was fined for his actions and reportedly apologized to Brooks.
Wall, Bradley Beal, Jeff Green, and Austin Rivers also got into a verbal altercation during a recent practice. Beal, who has been with the Wizards for seven seasons, reportedly told a Washington official he’s been dealing with volatile practices ever since he got drafted by Washington.
Markieff Morris says he's upset that things are getting leaked out to the media, via Fred Katz of The Athletic:
Markieff on if this win, amidst last 24 hours, is better: "It’s f***** up what’s going on. So I wouldn’t say that it makes it nicer. We’ve just got to figure it out"
"The comments that’s coming from the locker room is f***** up. It dont happen in other sports. So it’s messed up"

Markieff Morris could be referring to a number of things, but he might be focusing on an anonymous Wizards player saying that the team can't win with John Wall as the leader. Nevertheless, things in the nation's capital are still bad despite the win on Tuesday and it's clear some things need to be addressed in the Wizards' locker room.
