Greg Monroe’s agent Falk going to ask for a max contract?

Greg Monroe will be restricted free agent this summer.

Per The Oakland Press, Monroe’s agent David Falk is likely going to ask for a max contract, which will be somewhere in the neighborhood of four years and $60 million.

Falk is most famous for being the agent of Michael Jordan and is a master negotiator. Two years ago, Falk was able to convince Portland to sign restricted free agent Roy Hibbert to a four-year, $58 million deal after the Pacers didn’t offer what he wanted. Indiana matched, but the key is Falk got the number he wanted for his client.

Expect Falk to do something similar with Monroe. If the Pistons don’t offer the money he wants, then he will try find someone who will.

Detroit has the option to match any deal Monroe signs, but is Monroe worth $15 million or something close to that per year?
