Reason #2: Intensity

For any NBA organization that is trying to build a contender, they need players that have a passion for the game who will display constant effort when on the court. When it comes to Marvin Bagley, he fits that mold.

Throughout this season, Bagley has been a spark of energy for Sacramento. He is a guy that is always hustling and trying to help his team when he is on the floor. Not to say that his other teammates are not motivated, but with Marvin, it is just on a whole other level as he constantly jumps off my television screen due to making incredible effort plays on both ends of the floor.

Throughout the years, one of the main attributes that Kings fans look for in their players is a guy who is going to leave everything they have on the floor night in and night out. So far in his 47 appearances, Marvin Bagley has been a player who has done that. A young talent who has star potential and a high motor. That is the ideal player that the Kings need now and for the future.
