Suns finalizing deal to send Eric Bledsoe to Bucks for Greg Monroe
Phoenix is finalizing a deal to send guard Eric Bledsoe to Milwaukee for center Greg Monroe and a first-round pick, league sources tell ESPN's Zach Lowe and Adrian Wojnarowski.
The deal could also include a second-round pick, league sources tell ESPN.
Bledsoe has been away from the Suns since general manager Ryan McDonough sent him home on Oct. 23. One day earlier, Bledsoe tweeted, "I don't wanna be here."
McDonough announced at the time that Bledsoe "won't be with us going forward," and said he didn't believe Bledsoe's explanation that he was tweeting about wanting to leave a hair salon.
McDonough reiterated last month that the Suns had no timetable for a potential trade involving Bledsoe.
Bledsoe previously had met with Suns owner Robert Sarver and McDonough during the preseason and requested a trade, sources told ESPN. Bledsoe was told by management, according to sources, that the team had underperformed ever since he was given starting point guard responsibilities.
