Sources – Kings for open conversations for potential de’aaron fox -trading

Sacramento Kings is expected to open lectures to a potential de’aaron FOX trade by February 6- Deadline, sources of ESPN’s Shams Charania told Tuesday.

Fox, 27, has a year left on his contract before hitting free agency in the summer of 2026.

There will be plenty of volunteers for Fox who made an all-NBA team in 2022-23, but it is believed that Kings Point Guard has a target destination in mind in front of his free agency, sources say.

Kings fired head coach Mike Brown last month after the team seemed to be under expectation. Since then, Kings has won 11 of their last 15 games under temporary coach Doug Christie.

Sacramento goes into Tuesday evening 1½ games on the Golden State Warriors for the last Play-in-place at the Western Conference.

Fox, in his eighth season in the league, average 25.2 points and 6.2 assists while shooting 46.8% off the field.
