Suns’ Morris: Shoving Match With Teammate ‘Nothing’
A disappointing season for the Phoenix Suns turned uglier Wednesday when teammates Markieff Morris and Archie Goodwin got into a physical altercation on the bench.
Morris and Goodwin were seen arguing during a timeout in their game against the Golden State Warriors. The argument escalated into a shoving match between Morris, who is 6-foot-10, 245 pounds, and Goodwin, who is 6-5, 200 pounds. Teammates quickly stepped in and separated the two.
“That was nothing. That was part of being a leader and big brother,” Morris said after the team’s 112-104 loss. “Of course it looks bad. Everything I do looks bad.”

A team that is expected to be prominent in the trade market picture, rival teams expect: The New Orleans Pelicans. The franchise is off to an uneven 5-10 start to the season. New Orleans has been receiving calls about the availability of Lonzo Ball and JJ Redick and has shown an openness to discussing trades around both with interested teams, sources tell The Athletic. A move would create a clearer pathway for young guards Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Kira Lewis in the Pelicans’ rotation.
