who is anthony morrow?

in rotation: quest m.c.o.d.y. - the light project

in his first nba start today, anthony morrow not only went off for an incredible game, but made history too. his statline helped the warriors conquer the clips. morrow exploded for 37 points (15-20 from the floor, 3-4 from deep, 3-3 from the line) and 11 boards. morrow not only scored the most points by a rookie this season, surpassing mayo's 33, but he scored the most points ever by an undrafted rookie.

so who is anthony morrow? he's only played four games so i did a bit of research on him. according to dimemag, as a senior in high school, the 6-5, 210 pound wing was named “mr. basketball” in north carolina. at georgia tech, he finished his career in 19th place on tech’s all-time scoring list with 1,400 points – making at least one three-pointer in 41 straight games to close out his career.

with monta ellis currently out, morrow should get a bit of playing time on the 4-6 warriors team. i wonder if he can keep it up. a friend of mine seems to think so.
