Marvin Bagley NBA 2018 Draft Profile

Marvin Bagley’s biggest problem is one he can’t do anything about anytime soon: he’s just young.

A year ahead of his high school class, he came to Duke as a thin 6-11 pogo stick. People eventually figured out they could beat him up and limit him but he still averaged 21 ppg and 11.1 rpg.

More importantly, he can get his own food. He doesn’t necessarily need someone to feed him. Bagley has perhaps the best second jump we’ve ever seen. Coach K, who has a way with words, could only describe it with a rapid double pat of his hand in the air.
