The offensive skill set that Monk possesses is smooth beyond his years, who uses his crafty ball handling to get in to the lane or stop on dime to kill you with his shooting prowess. Only 6’3, but his unique wingspan and athletic frame makes him a difficult cover.
Monk garnered offers from Kansas, Oregon, Arkansas and Florida State, but felt John Calipari and Kentucky as his college destination.
