Bogut has often voiced his opinion on how growing the sport from a grassroots level can impact a city's NBL team. We've seen it with the Perth Wildcats, and the South East Melbourne Phoenix have also very publicly followed that model.
When Bogut arrived in Sydney in , the team made the Auburn Basketball Centre its official training venue, and each player was aligned with a local association across New South Wales. It was the beginning of the Kings' goal to connect with the grassroots; something Bogut hopes to continue as an owner. I think the grassroots is lightyears behind what Melbourne is, even Perth is ahead of Sydney, and I'd even say Queensland has passed Sydney as far as their grassroots development.
So, that's a big emphasis on what we're trying to do with the Kings. We're an NBL club and we're trying to win championships, but we also wanna be an elite development pathway for young juniors one day in Sydney. Bogut still has the option to eventually take up more than 10 percent of an ownership stake in the Kings, but that's still up in the air because he's left the door wide open for others to enter the fray.
One thing that's certain, though, is that he's invested - monetarily and emotionally - in building the franchise up, and there's a good chance he won't do it quietly.
