Marvin Bagley III (born March 14, 1999) is an American professional basketball player for the Washington Wizards of the National Basketball Association (NBA). He played college basketball for the Duke Blue Devils and was a 2018 Consensus All-American. He was selected with the second overall pick by the Sacramento Kings in the 2018 NBA draft. At the end of the 2018–19 season Bagley was selected to the NBA All-Rookie First Team. After spending three and a half seasons with the Kings, he was traded to the Pistons at the 2022 trade deadline.

High school career

[edit]

Bagley attended Corona del Sol High School in Tempe, Arizona, as a freshman, where he won the state championship and was named National Freshman Basketball Player of the Year by MaxPreps.[1] His sophomore year, he transferred to Hillcrest Prep in Phoenix, Arizona, where he was teammates with future #1 pick Deandre Ayton.[2][3] He left Hillcrest Prep in November 2015. In January 2016, he enrolled in Sierra Canyon School in Chatsworth, California.[4][5] He was ruled ineligible to play his first year at Sierra Canyon due to California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) rules.[6][7] In his last season for Sierra Canyon, he averaged 24.9 points per game and 10.1 rebounds per game. He would be named for the All-USA Today First Team in 2017.[8] He would graduate a year early and reclassify into the 2017 class.[9]

Recruiting

[edit]

Bagley was rated as a five-star recruit throughout his high school career and was formerly ranked as the top player in the 2018 class before his reclassification. Bagley played for WACG (We All Can Go), in the EYBL circuit, with known players such as Darius Garland and Tray Boyd III. During this time, Bagley and WACG were selected to play in the EYBL Peach Jam Tournament; Bagley picked up major awards and recognition with alongside help from Garland and Boyd III.[10][11][12][13] Bagley was ranked the No.1 overall recruit and No.1 power forward in the 2017 high school class.[14] His first college basketball scholarship offer came from Northern Arizona University when he was 14.[15]

Before beginning what would have been his senior year of high school, Bagley reclassified into the Class of 2017. On August 14, 2017, he announced that he successfully reclassified as a graduate from Sierra Canyon and was eligible to play college basketball for Duke University during the 2017–18 NCAA Division I men's basketball season.[16] thus allowing him to enter the 2018 NBA draft as an early entry in the collegiate level.[17][18][19] He graduated from Sierra Canyon on September 1, 2017 and went to Duke after finishing high school academics a week later.[20][21]
