Marcus Morris Sr. Arrested On Felony Fraud Charge: REPORT

Marcus Morris Sr., currently a free agent in the NBA, was reportedly placed under arrest Sunday in Broward County, Florida on felony fraud charges.

The arrest is the latest example of the legal problems that the Morris brothers have faced.

In 2015, just a few years later, both of the brothers were hit with felony aggravated assault charges while in Phoenix. That incident was connected to an alleged attack that took place against Erik Hood.

The twins have been playing in enforcer-style roles throughout their NBA careers. For Marcus, he’s currently placed in free agency, with the Philadelphia 76ers and Cleveland Cavaliers being his latest homes.

Morris, who has played 13 years in the NBA, has taken part in 832 total games in his career, and is starting to make the transition over to the media making consistent appearances on ESPN programs such as “First Take” and “Get Up.”
