Goodwin is averaging 15.3 points, seven assists, 5.1 boards, and almost two steals in 35 minutes with the G-League’s Westchester Knicks. He’s played for the Memphis Grizzlies and Atlanta Hawks, along with the G-League’s Memphis Hustle, Iowa Wolves, and College Park Skyhawks.
Morgan is posting 12.6 points and 6.8 boards while shooting 55.9% from the field and 38.8% from the three in 13 appearances with the Maine Celtics. He’s played for the Utah Jazz and their G-League affiliate the Salt Lake City Stars.
The news comes off the heels of the league postponing five games between Dec. 19 and Dec 21 – one of which was the Raptors game tonight against the Orlando Magic – Toronto’s second postponement of the season, due to the increase in COVID-19 cases around the NBA.
Update: Toronto also signing Nik Stauskas
Toronto is calling up Nik Stauskas of @NBAGrandRapids from the @nbagleague, league sources say.
