UPDATE 6:33 p.m. ET on Monday: Monk will miss at least two weeks.
During the second quarter of Sunday’s game vs. the Suns, Monk tried to fight around a screen to contest a jumper on the sideline. Unfortunately, he rolled his ankle on the foot of the screener and had to be helped off the court.
Monk has officially been ruled out for the remainder of the game.
Prior to exiting, Monk had four points, three rebounds, two assists and a steal in eight minutes.
Keon Ellis and Kevin Huerter should both see elevated playing time now.
