Good Evening Wiley Fam βπ»
Let me start first by saying, I am in no way saying Malik Monk is the next Steph or Trae, heβs still got a bunch to prove. With that said, here me out on why I think he has the potential to be a solid contributor in the for years to come.
Between the beginning of December and Christmas Day, the owned the fourth-WORST offense in the ENTIRE NBA. Call it injuries, COVID outbreaks, or whatever you want, the struggle was real. After a a 5 game absence, due to health and safety protocols, Monk returned on December 25th for the Christmas Day clash where he contributed 20 pts, 4 rebounds, & 3 assists off the bench, in the 115-122 loss to the
Since the loss on Christmas Day, Monk has averaged 20.2 PPG, shooting 52.5% from the field and 50.0% from beyond the arc β while starting eight of the nine games during that stretch. Oh, and did I mention, that Since the Christmas Day clash, L.A. has boasted the best offense in the league with an offensive rating of 120.0? Coincidence?!???
This could all change tomorrow, but as a lifelong fan, I have to call it like I see it, and the way I see it, the former is a and well deserving of his spot in the league.
Thanks for listening FAM! Get out there and show some love in the world, and have a great weekend!
