Here's your weekly reminder as to why the Suns are likely looking to trade Markieff Morris.

The embattled Phoenix Suns forward got into a shoving match with teammate Archie Goodwin in the first half of the Suns' home game against the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday.

From on-court problems such as getting into a shouting match with former coach Jeff Hornacek, to off-court issues such as being charged with felony assault last year, Morris continues to get on the bad side of the Suns and their fans. 

When he was introduced to the media last week, Suns interim coach Earl Watson said he planned to embrace and nurture Morris.

At any rate, Morris remains a prime candidate to be traded before the Feb. 18 deadline.

Update: After the game, Morris said he and Goodwin are fine. (Warning: Profane language toward the end of the video.)
