Wizards' Markieff Morris: Hits controversial game-winning bucket Saturday

Morris registered 13 points (6-12 FG, 1-1 FT), 11 rebounds, three assists, two steals and two blocks across 43 minutes in a 125-124 overtime victory over the Trail Blazers on Saturday.

Analysis:

Morris knocked down the go-ahead bucket on a baseline jumper with 0.4 seconds remaining in overtime, but it didn't come without controversy, as the forward appeared to step out of bounds before hoisting the shot. Nonetheless, it was a strong showing from Morris, who needed after he averaged only 9.2 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.2 three-pointers in 29.0 minutes per game over his previous five appearances.
