Description

Malik Monk’s evolution as a spark plug off the bench began during his rookie season with the Charlotte Hornets. The 11th overall pick in the 2017 NBA Draft inbounded the ball to Jeremy Lamb before reclaiming it on a quick handoff, splitting a pair of Chicago Bulls defenders with a shrewd spin move and finishing with an open layup for his efforts. Monk scored 16 of his 21 points in the fourth quarter, adding two rebounds, two assists and five 3-pointers in 24 minutes of run off the bench on April 3, 2018.
