Las Vegas — The departure of veteran center Zaza Pachulia to Dallas and the addition of big man Greg Monroe is part of a major makeover of the Milwaukee Bucks frontcourt.
But a more subtle adjustment also is part of the plan.
John Henson is in line for an expanded role this season, playing behind Monroe but also next to him in certain lineups if Bucks coach Jason Kidd decides to pair the 6-foot-11 duo.
"We think John is a great complement to Greg with his defensive ability and his ability as a premier shot-blocker in the league," Bucks general manager John Hammond said.
