Athletes getting injured is never a good thing. The Sacramento Kings have been dealing with injuries to their cornerstone players for the entirety of the season, which has undoubtedly set the team back in their development and progress.
As much as the injuries to Marvin Bagley and De’Aaron Fox have negatively affected the team, they have not come without silver linings, and might even be blessings in disguise.
Things looked ugly on opening night when the Kings were blown out in embarrassing fashion in Phoenix. We were worried about late-game injuries to both Fox and Buddy Hield as they limped into the locker room, both a little dinged up.
