Title explains it all.  Awesome to see him hit that.

  Darius Morris is now officially a Laker, he signed a contract, Actual terms (length, money, etc) weren't released though

Good for him, being a 2nd round pick, a contract wasn't guaranteed, hopefully he gets some playing time this year

The NBA has nixed the deal between the Hornets and Lakers.  Darius Morris no longer looks to be buried behind 3 PGs in LA and looks to have shfited Lakers focus back to Howard.

Another Laker Blog, another Darius interview - here.

“A lot of people say that I can’t shoot, but I can!”

Chad Ford put out his final mock draft before the real deal and has Morris going to the Rockets with the 38th pick. Let's hope it doesn't play out that way. (ESPN Insider article)

The relevant info:

The Rockets would like to add some size in the backcourt and have been fans of Morris for a while. At No. 38, he's worth the risk. He has a lot of Andre Miller to his game.

Looks like a few Wolverines are up for some awards from the previous school year. It looks like we have a good chance to win in almost every category listed in this blog post, it would be a tremendous miscarriage of justice if Sullinger wins the breakout award over Denard. 

I, for one, find it quite surprising that Mark Dantonio is placed in the "courageous" category alongside Brock Mealer and Jon Hoese.
