The Sacramento Kings are having their best season in years.
With a 10-8 record, the team is currently the sixth seed in the West, which is an honor they haven’t had in nearly two decades.
The season is long and there are still plenty of games to play but Kings fans are elated by what they have seen from this young, explosive squad.
One of the team’s biggest stars is De’Aaron Fox.
Most see him as the future of the franchise, with his average of 25.1 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 6.1 assists a game.
But Fox recently made a big adjustment related to his career: he changed management and joined Klutch Sports.
“I love being in Sacramento. This move had nothing to do with wanting to be traded or wanting to move on.”

Some Sacramento fans were fearful that this meant he wanted to follow a different direction for his NBA future.
But Fox was quick to let people know that isn’t the case.
“I love being in Sacramento,” Fox told Chris Haynes.
“This move had nothing to do with wanting to be traded or wanting to move on,” he added.
That’s great news for fans of the Kings because the last thing they want right now is to lose any part of this team that is thriving.
Fox Finding Success
Fox has been an important part of the Kings since joining the team back in the 2017-18 season.
His career average is 19.4 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 6.2 assists.
But despite those great numbers, he hasn’t gotten a lot of recognition simply because he has been playing for a dreadful team.
That is all changing this year as the Kings are finally coming together in a huge way.
It’s about time that Fox gets the acclaim he deserves and he is stepping up even more as his Sacramento squad surges.
Of course, with great success always comes rumors of players wanting to be traded.
Fox says that’s not happening and that’s just another reason why Sacramento fans are happy.
