One item to consider is Bogdan doesn’t have his legs because he hasn’t had of off season of conditioning in quite a while.
He played the Olympics in the summer of 2016. Then he played Euroleague, then this summer he played Eurobasket. You can’t condition fully when prepping for a tournament. Ideally Bogdan would have taken the summer off to condition and learn the Kings system. He choose not to and it’s definately affecting his play.

The sort of training camps that the national team run at Zlatibor (mountain), I think you will find those would rival any NBA team. The problem might be that Bogdan hasn't actually had a break and is not used to playing as many games close together as he is facing in the NBA. Plus games in the NBA are longer.
