Bucks' Greg Monroe: Delivers well-rounded line in Sunday's win

Monroe managed 14 points (5-13 FG, 4-5 FT), eight rebounds, three assists, three steals and two blocks in 34 minutes during Sunday's 100-96 win over the Suns.

Analysis:

Monroe struggled against a stingy Jazz frontcout Friday, but bounced back with a strong effort versus the lowly Suns. The veteran center appeared to be a shell of his former self over the first couple months of 2016-17, but he has been quite solid since Jabari Parker (knee) went down with a season-ending injury. Over the first six games of Parker's absence, Monroe is averaging 15.8 points, 7.7 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.8 steals while shooting 60.6 percent from the floor, making him a strong lineup option in just about every season-long format.
