Marvin Bagley III’s size and athleticism are obvious to fans and scouts alike, but it’s his mindset that left an impression on the Kings.
Bagley, who was selected by Sacramento with the second pick in Thursday’s NBA draft, said he’s eager to pick coach Dave Joerger’s brain. If you ask Joerger, the 6-foot-11 forward from Duke is “hungry to learn” and already began that process during his pre-draft workout with the Kings on June 11.
“One thing that I appreciated the most is he wanted to learn whether we were in video or out on the court,” Joerger said Saturday during Bagley's introductory news conference at Golden 1 Center.
