Sure if we want to create competition for GTJ as the biggest hypebeast in the locker room

Monk really wasn’t that good last year. There’s a chance he is a benchwarmer in the playoffs for them. He rode the bench at times for a not great Charlotte team last year.

Wish we never let go of Oshae. He could’ve been another one of those big wings for us

6’7” and 7’ wingspan

If we bring back Khem Birch, I still feel good heading into next season.

Fred VanVleet / Malachi Flynn
Gary Trent Jr
OG Anunoby / Scottie Barnes
Pascal Siakam / Chris Boucher
Khem Birch / Precious Achiuwa

No shortage of size on that team. Goran Dragic could fit as a guard on the second unit. Hopefully they can flip him for someone a little younger. You have Yuta Watanabe, Paul Watson and Freddie Gillespie as depth pieces and Dalano Banton and David Johnson to develop. They can cut Sam Dekker as far as I'm concerned.

The simpler answer is the Lakers have no depth and Malik Monk saw the Lakers as a team where he could both play, compete and showcase his skills for his next contract.

The heat got better but not as much as the media is portraying. Lakers look like a retirement home. The balance hasnt shifted at all this offseason

And he just recently turned 23

Really odd decision. Love Yuta but he’s nothing special

Would’ve rather cut Watson if anything

What’s the implications of the Heat pulling their QO from Nunn? Doesn’t it affect the Lowry sign-trade deal?

Part of the reason i want to give the young guys on the team minutes and not sign anyone in free agency to play in front of them

I think its a great pickup for them. Lakers had no money to spend and somehow landed Malik Monk for the minimum. Part of me wonders if there’s some shady sh*t going on behind the scenes.

The guy who gave him minutes just got fired. I honestly want to see how he looks going forward(Oshae).
