My Take

Chris Morris earns my respect as the kind of steady professional who keeps a league running. An Atlanta native and a 203 cm small forward, he carved out eleven NBA seasons across the Nets, Jazz, and Suns, which is no accident for anyone who lasts that long. Having his jersey retired at Douglass High School speaks to the local pride he carries, and the climb through Auburn shows the grind behind it. He was never the marquee superstar, but I'm drawn to dependable players like him, the unsung backbone who make the headline acts possible.

Overview

Christopher Vernard Morris (born January 20, 1966) is an American former professional basketball player. In his eleven-season (1988–1999) National Basketball Association (NBA) career, the 6'8" small forward played for the New Jersey Nets, Utah Jazz, and Phoenix Suns. He is a graduate of Atlanta's Douglass High School where his jersey has been retired, and played collegiately for the Auburn Tigers.
