In addition to rebounding, the versatile power forward also leads all rookies in three-point percentage (.460), seventh-best in the NBA overall, and ranks eighth among first-year players in scoring. Morris is one of seven rookies who have recorded a double-double this season. Morris憑著場均7.2分及本季新秀最佳的場均5籃板獲得這項殊榮 目前太陽的25場比賽他都有上場，場均時間20.6分鐘 除了籃板之外，這位全能大前鋒的三分命中率(46%)也是新秀最高，同時也是全NBA第七， 場均得分則排在新秀第八，Morris也是本季拿到過雙十的七位新秀之一 It is fitting that Morris is the first Sun since Stoudemire to earn a Rising Stars selection because the former University of Kansas standout is having the best statistical season by a Phoenix rookie since Stoudemire. Morris is averaging the most points and the most rebounds by a Suns rookie since Stoudemire in 2002-03, and is nearly one of only nine first-year players in franchise history to average at least eight points and five rebounds. Morris作為Stoudemire之後第一位入選新秀挑戰賽的太陽球員相當合適， 因為他也是Stoudemire之後數據最漂亮的新秀 Morris的得分和籃板都是2002-03的Stoudemire之後最佳的， 而且也幾乎成為隊史僅有的九名場均8分5板的新秀之一 原文 http://ppt.cc/oOwS --
