Taurean Prince is a similarly valued player, maybe worse as a player, but cheaper and at a more valued position.
Prince and a future 2nd is realistic for Morris. Delonte West [Delon Wright] probably isn’t even worth that.
I'm not really familiar with Wright, but Washington fans seemed to like him more than Morris on the Washington Wizards reddit. Saying things like he outplayed Morris every night, and was a great role model demonstrating the value of defense to our young perimeter players.
For just one season, Wright could be the better fit. He’s bigger and a very good defender. He isn’t the passer that Morris is, but he can hit three’s as well. He’s someone who’s game I’ve wanted in MIN for a long time.
Unfortunately, he’s 31, on an expiring contract, and can’t be extended. One of the features we’d really need to value is the ability to bring the player back next year, to become our starting PG, since we don’t have many ways under the CBA to replace Mike Conley when his contract expires. Wright would help this year, but I’m not sure he’s a starting PG, especially for ages 32-34, plus we’d be gambling he’d sign with us next year.
