Marvin Bagley III Isn’t In The Sacramento Kings’ Rotation

Now, entering the start of the 2021-22 season, the Sacramento Kings announced that Marvin Bagley III would not be in their starting lineup, which forced Bagley’s management to step in. 

Founder and President of Excel Sports Management, Jeff Schwartz, is one of the most well-known and well-respected agents in the league and he represents Marvin Bagley III.

In a statement made on Tuesday afternoon, Schwartz blasted the Kings for their intent to bench his client and it is very clear to see that neither Bagley nor his representation are happy in their current situation. 

“Sacramento has informed Marvin Bagley he is not in the opening night rotation, which is completely baffling,” Jeff Schwartz said in a statement. “It’s clear they have no plans for him in the future, and yet, passed on potential deals at last year’s deadline and this summer based on ‘value.’ Instead, they chose to bring him back but not play him, a move completely contradictory to their ‘value’ argument.”

The Sacramento Kings have missed the playoffs for 15 consecutive years and this is not a fluke.

Mismanaging their roster and constantly making mistakes with some of their better players is something the Kings have been known for over the years and this is the main reason why they have been bottom-feeders in the league for close to two decades now.
