Sacramento Kings rookie Marvin Bagley III was asked who he thought would be league MVP this season. He could have taken some of the usual suspects like LeBron James or Steph Curry or James Harden. He could have gone wild card and picked a new candidate like Giannis Antetokounmpo or Joel Embiid. He could have thrown some love at one of his own teammates, even. Instead Marvin predicted...himself. To be the NBA MVP. In 2018-19.
I’m not going to get worked up about this. He’s got self confidence and wants to aim high.
