Bucks' Greg Monroe: Scores 11 off the bench Sunday

Monroe scored 11 points (4-9 FG, 3-3 FT) while adding five rebounds and two steals in 18 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 98-83 loss to the Pistons.

Analysis:

After playing 29 minutes in the Bucks' opener, Monroe hasn't topped 20 minutes in either of the last two games as coach Jason Kidd tries to sort through a plethora of frontcourt options. Monroe's been able to stay somewhat productive despite the restricted minutes, but that's not likely to continue unless he can carve out a larger share of the available court time.
