Marcus Morris: Not with Celtics to start training camp

Celtics president of basketball operations Danny Ainge said on Monday at media
day that the team continues to stay in touch with Morris and they remain hopeful
that he’ll be able to join the team following the conclusion of the trial. That
means he won’t be present for the start of training camp and could also miss
some regular-season time depending on the result of the trial and/or a
suspension by the league itself. Continue to monitor the situation moving
forward, but if Morris does end up missing time to start the year, the Celtics
could shift Gordon Hayward over to power forward and insert someone like Jaylen
Brown or Jayson Tatum into the starting lineup at small forward. Otherwise, if
the Celtics want to go a bit bigger, they could move Al Horford to power forward
and use Aron Baynes as a starter at center.
