New Orleans considering acquiring Greg Monroe from Bucks
Milwaukee Bucks forward/center Greg Monroe is being discussed in trade talks with the New Orleans Pelicans, according to Zach Lowe of ESPN.
Lowe reports the Pelicans are looking for a bruiser to put alongside Anthony Davis and have gone back and forth with the Bucks about the deal. We'll keep an eye on this situation, but John Henson and Miles Plumlee could be in for a minutes boost if Monroe is moved.
Monroe has been playing well this season, evidenced by a 6.1 nERD, which ranks 24th in the league. He's averaging 16.7 points, 9.7 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game on 52.1 percent shooting from the field, which is an improvement on his 50.8 percent career-average.
