February 1, 2021

QUESTION: “What did Marvin Bagley III say or do to warrant a technical foul at the end of the first quarter?”

CAPERS: “The Sacramento team had been warned about continually complaining and then he resented a foul call and had a profanity laced statement directed towards the official which caused him to get the first technical foul.”

QUESTION: “What did Bagley say or do to warrant a second technical foul with 10:18 remaining in the third quarter?”

CAPERS: “There was a personal foul called against him, he had an overt reaction that went beyond the heat of the moment and because he had one technical the second technical was automatic ejection.”
