Kings also send Jordan McLeulin to San Antonio in the deal. Kings will get Sidy Cissoko, three options in the first round in the future and three choices in the second round in the future. The bulls will receive Zach Collins and Tri Jones and Keter -Hearter.
Fox, 27 years old, drafted by SACRAMENTO in 2017, was 21.5 points (at 47/33/74 fire division), 6.1 decisive passes, 3.9 rebound balls and 1.4 theft in 33.2 minutes per game over eight seasons.
Fox has been removed for two years of the job season. In the 2022-23 campaign, he made his first appearance on both the All-Star and All NBA lists, where he won the award for the best holder of the Holding in the year along the way. Kings led to a 48 -win season, where he ended the qualifying for the privilege for 17 years, before losing in the first round.
Kings failed to make qualifiers last season, when Fox was 26.6 points for each game up to a professional level.
Sacramento started this season with 13-18, which led to the launch of the last American professional coach Mike Brown. Kings Doug Christie promoted the introduction to the seat and immediately won seven consecutive matches. They currently have a record from 24 to 24 and adhere to the final championship site at the Western Conference.
When a retired player in the American Professional League Lu Williams suggested that the rift between Fox and Bruun played a role in shooting at the coach, Fox launched social media“There was no batch of anything. This narration for us sowing their heads or I was going to the administration saying that anything is the bulls ***.”
Kings opened trade discussions on Fox for the rest of the league on Tuesday, According to Christia. According to what Fox Tottenham included in the top of his favorite destinations, and got his desire. He deserves $ 37 million in the coming season and can become a free and unrestricted agent in the summer of 2026.
FOX will now cooperate with star Victor Wimbanama in San Antonio, where they will try to pay a match in the second half of the season.
Earth kings Zach Lavin
The second part of this deal transmits Lavin from Chicago and re -enlarged it with his former colleague Demar Derozan.
The average of Lavigne, who will be 30 years old on March 10, reached 24 points (at 51/45/80 rifts), 4.8 rebounds and 4.5 passes for each game in favor of the bulls this season. She played 42 games in 2024-25 more than thirty wins last season, as it restricted surgery on his right foot to 25 games.
The injuries were a large part of the Lavigan story in the American Professional League. Its medical history is characterized by six injuries at the end of the season, including the left ACL torn in its third season. He performed a second surgery on his left knee in 2022.
Lavin’s contract was another obstacle to trade in the past years. He signed a five-year maximum contract worth $ 215 million in 2022, which includes the player’s option of $ 49 million for a campaign of 2026-27.
When good health, Lavigne is an electric scorer. Its average reached 24.6 points per game on a real shooting of 60 % during its last seven seasons in Chicago. The only players who met these signs at the time: Giannis Antokicoclbo, Stephen Carrey, Anthony Davis, Kevin Durant, Joel Empid, James Harden, Kerry Irfing, Liberon James, Kawahi Leonard, Damian Lilly and Zion Williamson. Good company.
The Lavin Bulls team achieved the lowest appearance of the teams of these players. Lavin made the qualifiers only once, in 2021-22, when she lost Chicago in five games against Milwoki Paczi in the first round. The bulls are currently holding a record 21-29, which he got in the tenth place in the eastern conference ranking.
Lavigne’s defense and game makers were barriers on the road. They were also factors that contribute to the team’s lack of success. The difference was reluctant to absorb his contract and the date of the injury as a result, but the kings finished this opportunity. We will soon discover whether the production of Lavine at the level of stars can be translated into a competitor, or if there is a justification for doubt.
