People will point to the statistics. They’ll see that Marvin Bagley III put up big numbers in a 117-116 loss to the Golden State Warriors on Saturday night at Oracle Arena and they’ll say the numbers show signs of progress.
Bagley tied his career high with 20 points and established a new career high with 17 rebounds. The numbers were impressive, but the box score isn’t the only place where his game is growing. It’s actually happening on the floor, under the lights, in pressure situations against some of the best basketball players in the world.
“Every game,” Bagley said.
