Wizards interested in Greg Monroe?

The big man will RFA next summer

NBA

Greg Monroe of the Pistons is averaging 14.4ppg and 8.8rpg this season. The big man will be restricted free agent at the end of the year but the Wizards seem interested in him either through trade or free agency. 

Per Basketballinsiders, One team is interested in Monroe is the Washington Wizards, according to multiple league sources. It’s becoming clear that Washington is planning to pursue in Monroe, either through trade or free agency.
Prior to joining the Pistons, Monroe starred at Georgetown for two seasons so he’s no stranger to Washington. The Wizards have $41,458,760 in guaranteed commitments for next season, since Marcin Gortat and Trevor Ariza among others are in the final year of their contracts.
With that said, it’s not every day that a 23-year-old big man with Monroe’s skill set and potential becomes available, so expect many other teams to emerge as possible suitors for Monroe as well. But since Monroe will be a restricted free agent, the Pistons can match any offer that he receives so getting the big man to sign an offer sheet doesn’t necessarily mean that he’ll leave Detroit.
If Detroit plays well, the team will likely remain intact and the Pistons will try to make a postseason run. If the team continues to struggle, it’s very possible that Detroit makes a trade between now and the deadline.
