Marvin Bagley III Refused To Enter Kings Game Vs Suns

 

The Sacramento Kings’ number two pick from the 2018 NBA Draft (yes, before the likes of Luka Doncic or Trae Young), Marvin Bagley III, has been one big disappointment for the team ever since.

The Kings did not move Bagley either at last season’s trade deadline or this past offseason, bringing him back for the final guaranteed year on his rookie deal, but he hasn’t cracked the team’s rotation this season and only appeared in one game so far.

Then, this past Sunday it appears that head coach Luke Walton wanted to play Bagley for the second time of the season, but Bagley refused to check into game.

 

“Multiple sources told me that Marvin Bagley III refused to check into Sunday’s game when Luke Walton called upon him in the second half vs. the Suns. I didn’t report it, wanting to first talk to the Kings coach. Walton said he & Marvin are in communication and has to be ready.”
