Perhaps the most immediately impactful move of Sacramento’s offseason came on July 20th, 2018, when the Sacramento Kings had signed Nemanja Bjelica to a three-year deal worth $20.5 million. Bjelica had originally agreed to a one-year deal with the Philadelphia 76ers, but never officially inked the paper due to intentions to play in Europe.
While we get lost in the hype surrounding youngsters like De’Aaron Fox, Buddy Hield, Bogdan Bogdanovic, Marvin Bagley and company, we should also note the importance of Bjelica to this “young superteam”.
Let’s look at some of Bjelica’s stats throughout his career:
