Minnesota has back-to-back home games scheduled against Boston on Monday and New York on Tuesday. Monroe will arrive Monday morning, complete a physical, and sign his contract if everything goes well, Darren Wolfson of 5 Eyewitness News tweets.
He could be solid as a PF alongside KAT.
He plays good interior defence and offensively he doesn’t completely block up the paint
So that’s why he has been in the NBA all this time.
surprised they didn’t go with Jahlil Okafor.
think that would be cool to have both KAT & Jhalil from that draft class
No defense but I agree it would be cool to see the top3 picks of that draft on the same team
Wizards sign Meadowlark Lemon to a 10-day replacement player contract
If he can just reb and play solid team D. He can play with KAT. And fit in nicely. At 31 he still has a chance.
My time is coming
If you are the “real” Treveon Graham I hope so.
Firstly, are u the real Treveon Graham, because I really liked Treveon when he was in the NBA, secondly, have u got any NBA offers if ur real and I think u can make it to a team
