Sounds to me like one of those deals where Memphis made the offer and the Kings said no.
I can't imagine if we offered the 9 it would have been turned down. That's just paying a team to take Bagley and I don't think we are there, teams just want to lowball us, which I guess makes sense given what a little turd his dad is.
