Sacramento’s star sixth man gave some insight into his next chapter.
last Friday. The loss capped off a winless series of games against the Pelicans, who beat the Kings six consecutive times this season., New Orleans was able to deal with a Sacramento squad that was missing some of their own. Among those was, who suffered a season-ending leg injury in late March, forcing the Sixth Man of the Year favorite to miss out on the final ten games of the Kings’ campaign.
Unfortunately, Monk’s presence off the bench could be missing next year as the guard hits the open market with an opportunity to sign a lucrative contract before the start of next season. There are plenty of teams across the league who could be suitors for the veteran guard, and the Kings may not have the financial freedom to match a high contract offer.On the bright side, there’s some hope for Kings fans.
One thing that sticks out from his interviews is that he loves the city of Sacramento and the support that he’s received from fans during his time here. While the business aspect of basketball may take Monk away from the area, his impact on the team will be permanently felt. The former Kentucky Wildcat guard averaged career highs in points and assists this season, portraying his show-stopping abilities at all times while on the court. With plenty of time to make his decision, be assured that Monk staying in Sacramento isn’t off the table yet.
