Looking to find ways to upgrade their roster for next season, the Milwaukee Bucks are reportedly exploring trade options for center Greg Monroe. Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
On Saturday, ESPN's Ian Begley reported the Bucks are trying to move Monroe, adding the front office has been "trying to do so on and off for a while."
The Bucks reduced Monroe's role last season, bringing him off the bench. He played a career-low 22.5 minutes per game, and his average points per contest dropped from 15.3 in 2015-16 to 11.7 in 2016-17.Ā
