Malik Monk is good for at least one highlight-reel play per game.
Unfortunately for Ole Miss, Monk’s latest ‘wow’ play came at the expense of three different Rebels. It happened in the first half when Monk caught a rebound, burst down the court, crossed over two defenders, then drove right into Marcanvis Hymon and laid it in for as good of an and-1 as you’ll see.

Monk, as well as this UK team in general, are as dangerous on the fast break as you'll find in college basketball.

Monk would finish the night with 34 points on 11-of-16 shooting (5-of-7 from three-point range). He's putting himself in contention for the top pick in the 2017 NBA Draft.
