Player #3: Bogdan Bogdanovic

The Sacramento Kings will again have to rely on Bogdan Bogdanovic‘s versatility. The best quality in Bogi has been his ability to play multiple styles and positions of basketball. Whether it has been the Kings wanting the Serbian star to be a facilitator, scorer, or defensive stopper, Bogi has done it. Or even when the Kings have wanted him to play minutes at point guard and small forward, even when his pure position is shooting guard, Bogi has adapted well.

With De’Aaron Fox out, the Kings will probably turn to Bogi to get some run at point guard. Throughout his NBA career, Bogi has averaged around four assists per game which is not bad for a two-guard. Bogi has shown as a King that he is a smart player with excellent court vision, so it has to be believed that the Kings will have him at some minutes being a facilitator.

This season has been rough for Bogdanovic to start, but he had himself a tremendous game against the Atlanta Hawks as of late. The Kings are hoping that Bogdan can become “FIBA Bogi” while De’Aaron is out. If so, that would be a great assistance for Sacramento.
