Bamba and Malik Monk seem to be in similar situations, both young high potential guys who have fallen out of the rotation with mystery as to the reasoning being COVID or performance based ?

Maybe a straight swap would be beneficial for both teams? Off-season rumors stated that Charlotte was looking or a rim protector who wasn’t worthless
on offense like biyombo and we can always use more scorers on our team !

Maybe Monk can be Tross insurance or a Fournier replacement if everything clicks for him.

What y’all think ?

Worth the gamble ?

Monk has been terrible, but he is only 22. So you're hoping he's a second draft candidate like Markelle Fultz.

Personally, I would pass on him and look for a different deal involving Bamba.

A couple 2nd rd picks are more valuable than Bamba or Monk
