All of the Kings’ struggles have caused some to wonder whether or not Sacramento may opt to become sellers instead of buyers at the trade deadline, and if maybe even Fox himself could be a part of those talks. “Last month, De’Aaron Fox turned down a $165 million extension. The assumption was that this was about next summer’s financial opportunity for Fox and nothing to worry about. Other executives aren’t so sure, and they’re ready to pounce,” reported NBA insider Matt Moore of Hardwood Paroxysm.

Houston is one of the scrappiest, most physical teams in the league.
Things got chippy early and the Kings didn’t back down. De’Aaron Fox closed the first half on a big run & then the Kings stepped on the gas in the 2nd half.
An outstanding, and desperately needed, performance. – 12:24 AM

Kings trailed by 11 in the first half but pull to within one of the Rockets at the half. 55-54 after a very entertaining and chippy first half. Sacramento goes 7/17 from the perimeter, while Houston is 7/21. Jalen Green a game high 16, De’Aaron Fox 15. – 11:09 PM

Jabari Smith Jr. and De’Aaron Fox exchange words after Fox was called for pulling down Smith on a foul. Dillon Brooks and Malik Monk hit with technical fouls. Brooks regains the NBA lead in Ts with six. Play under review to determine if Green 3-pointer will count. – 10:53 PM

More on this storyline
Moore also reported on why a certain accolade for Fox this year could potentially cool off those talks. “One thing that would likely change this conversation immediately is if Fox secured an All-NBA selection and opened up the supermax for him to re-sign,” reported Moore. “That’s absolutely on the table for a player averaging 28-5-6 with room to improve his efficiency. If he doesn’t, however, and the Kings’ season goes sideways, things are going to get hot. Fox is represented by Klutch Sports, which means there’s always drama around the corner.” -via Clutch Points / December 4, 2024
