Kings forward Marvin Bagley III will miss some time as he recovers from a knee injury suffered during Sacramento's 130-125 loss to the Warriors on Friday.
The rookie had an MRI after the loss, which revealed he is dealing with a left knee bone bruise. He is expected to miss 10 to 14 days before being re-evaluated, the team announced early Saturday.

Bagley left Friday's game during the second quarter and did not return. The 2018 No. 2 overall pick came down awkwardly on his knee after he had his legs taken out from under him on a rebound attempt. He got up on his own but was helped to the locker room.
