All Three Centers Start At Least 10 Games

The Milwaukee Bucks seem entirely ensure which of their centers is the one to go with. The Bucks need to trade one of these guys, especially if Greg Monroe ends up taking his player option for next season.

John Henson and Miles Plumlee are the other two options at the position, and none of the three have established themselves as the obvious starter yet. Due to his new, huge paychecks, Plumlee will likely get first dibs at the spot.

Bucks coach Jason Kidd will have to juggle them all to keep all three players happy though, and he’s been known to tinker with lineups in the past. A few bad Plumlee games, a favorable match-up for one of the other two or even a minor injury could cause another big man to get a shot manning the middle for the Bucks.

The center least likely to get those ten starts is Henson. He’s only started 44 games in four years with Milwaukee. This could be the year he finally gets his shot to do more than make spot starts, especially if one of the other two gets traded or needs to sit out for a few games.
