If De'Aaron Fox has not officially requested his transfer, the leader's future in Sacramento is very unclear.
Between his refusal to extend before the start of the season, his declarations on the fact that he above all wanted to be in a competitive team, his change of agent and of course the sporting situation of the Kings (12th in the West with 15 victories for 19 defeats, the dismissal of Mike Brown…), there is reason to be worried for the fans.
According to Sam Amick, from The Athleticalways very well informed about the franchise of the Californian capital, if there is to be a transfer, it would rather be next summer and not before the “trade deadline”.
Originally from Houston
In the short term, Sacramento would rather like to strengthen the squad around the playmaker, to try to convince him to stay. Only if all attempts by the club to push De'Aaron Fox to extend fail will a transfer be considered. While, logically, many clubs are on the lookout.
We have already mentioned the very strong interest of Spurswho would like to associate him with Victor Wembanyama, but also that of Heat or Lakers. But The Athletic adds the tracks leading to Magic and to Rocketswhile De'Aaron Fox is from Houston…
But Sacramento can afford to wait (a little) because De'Aaron Fox is under contract until 2026.
