Morgan, a 5-foot 8 point guard, is a quick and skilled lead guard, and says his diminutive frame actually helps him do what he does on the court.
“My height makes it easier for me to penetrate through defenders and finish around the basket,” said Morgan. “But I can also spread it out and shoot from outside. I can make plays for my teammates and get them involved, kick it out to them, stuff like that.”
With Houston County this season, the sophomore point guard says he averaged 10 points and four assists per game. He was both a sixth-man and a starter at times.
“We had a huge improvement from last year, going from 5-20 to 17-10. My role was to come off the bench and give the starters a break when they were tired,” said Morgan, who started the second half of the season.
This spring and summer will be Morgan’s 16U offseason, he’ll play with Warner Robins All-Stars again. Although his recruitment hasn’t started up yet, it’s something he’s looking forward to get going in the coming months.
“My goals are to get looked at by colleges and just to improve my game, like defensively and being able to get my teammates more involved,” said Morgan.
