A year ago, the Charlotte Hornets had a good problem - they had too many guards. LaMelo Ball, Terry Rozier, Malik Monk, and Devonte' Graham were all playing really good basketball, but there are only so many minutes to go around.
Monk appeared in 42 games last season with the Hornets and without a doubt had his best season statistically. He averaged 11.7 points per game and shot 40% from three, however, he didn't necessarily get the opportunity to really effect the game and some nights, he didn't touch the floor. It was an odd situation.
The Hornets let Monk walk in free agency this summer and he was picked up by the Los Angeles Lakers.
