Although he resumed 11-on-11 drills, the unavailability has impacted his ability to build chemistry and compete for a starting position against teammates Jacob Parrish and Keionte Scott. Morrison entered camp as a leading candidate to start opposite Zyon McCollum but must demonstrate he can return to form quickly before the season begins.
