Once again, Greg Monroe's name is being dragged on NBA trade rumors. He has been in the spotlight for a couple of months now.
Reports are saying that he will be traded away by the Milwaukee Bucks either to the Cavs, Warriors, and Pelicans. However, this rumors never happen.
But earlier reports say that the Bucks are still placing Monroe on the trading block for possible trade scenarios. And if ever the Bucks part ways with Monroe, they want a shooting guard in exchange.
According to Sportsrageous, the Bucks would gladly have a shooting guard as trade bargain for Monroe. One possible team that they look to is the New Orleans Pelicans. The Pelicans can give Tyreke Evans to the Bucks but base on coach Jason Kidd system he will be a bad fit for them.
The report also says that one trade scenario would be with the Charlotte Hornets. The Hornets can give up Jeremy Lamb and Spencer Hawes for Monroe. The Hornets can alternate Monroe and Roy Hibbert in the center position while on the other hand, the Bucks get Lamb as a substitute for Khris Middleton for shooting.
The Milwaukee Bucks lost Khris Middleton for about six months due to a torn hamstring injury. That's why the Bucks got Michael Beasley from the Houston Rockets in exchange for Tyler Ennis. Is Beasley enough replacement for Khris Middleton?
According to ABC News, Beasley could be Middleton's perfect replacement but it is still not proven. Although Beasley had a remarkable stretch on the Rockets roster last season there's no denying that Middleton's skill set is different to him.
The report also says that Middleton's shooting ability and defensive skill is one of the Bucks' strong points last season. Though they also got Matthew Dellavedova and Mirza Teletovic this summer, but they are not wing players compare to Middleton.
Assuming that the Bucks will trade Monroe for a shooting is this a good move on their side? Can Michael Beasley step up for Khris Middleton's absence?
