Kings draft grades: With fans divided on Marvin Bagley, do NBA analysts like the pick?

The Kings walked away from Thursday's draft with Duke's Marvin Bagley III, and fans are clearly divided over the decision.

But can a consensus be found among NBA analysts in the national media?

Bagley, who averaged 21 points and 11.1 rebounds per game en route to an Atlantic Coast Conference Player of the Year award last season, heard his name called by the Kings at the No. 2 spot over a fellow fan-favorite in Slovenian swingman Luka Doncic.

"I had a good feeling about this team, the city, the direction they're trying to go," Bagley told local media members during a conference call Thursday.
