2011 NBA Draft Results: Markieff Morris Drafted By Suns With No. 13 Pick

by Tom Ziller

With the No. 13 pick in the 2011 NBA Draft, the Phoenix Suns selected Kansas forward Markieff Morris.

Morris has a twin brother in the draft, Marcus. Marcus has consistently been considered the better NBA prospect; at Kansas, Marcus was a stud scorer and billed himself as an NBA small forward. Markieff has been considered a true power forward and a banger in the paint. Ergo, he leaped above his brother in the lottery. Marcus could slide on out, as only the Houston Rockets have a lottery pick left.
