Marcus Bagley - Still hopeful to return this season Bagley released a statement via his personal Twitter account that requests fans to "please be patient with me" and says he has "hope to be out there with my guys soon." Impact While Bagley seems to be making progress on his rehab from a knee injury, it appears that both he and his primary doctor came down with COVID, which resulted in further delays. Still, the statement is encouraging in a sense that he hasn't ruled out a return this season. Bobby Hurley and the Sun Devils have struggled to the tune of a 5-9 record and will likely have to make a Pac-12 tournament run in order to go dancing this season, but the addition of a double-digit scorer like Bagley would certainly aid those efforts. Despite his somewhat-encouraging words, however, fantasy managers will have to proceed with caution given there will likely be a multi-week period of easing the 6-8 wing back into action. The Sun Devils have three games on the calendar this week, but Bagley should likely be considered questionable at best for those outings.
