Earlier this week it was reported that the Sacramento Kings were willing to wait until the summer to sort out Bogdan Bogdanovic's future. However, The Sacramento Bee is now reporting that the Kings have offered Bogdan Bogdanovic a $51.4 million contract extension, although the 27-year-old is in no rush to commit his future to the team:

Bogdanovic told The Sacramento Bee he wants to take his time with the decision. He would prefer to remain in Sacramento, but he could receive more lucrative offers if he waits to become a restricted free agent this summer.

During the 18-19 season, Bogdanovic averaged 14.1 points, 3.8 assists, and 3.5 rebounds while playing prominently from the bench. As an upcoming restricted free agent, the Kings have until June 30 to re-sign the Serbian.
