Don’t look now, but the Sacramento Kings currently are tied for 6th place in the Western Conference standings with a 16-13 record more than one-third of the way through the season.
One of the biggest contributing factors to the Kings’ success is the play of second-year point guard and former Kentucky Wildcat, De’Aaron Fox.
Fox, the 5th overall pick in the 2017 NBA Draft, played decently in his first NBA season after a stellar freshman year at Kentucky, but Fox has taken his play to a new level in his second year, and in turn has had a major role in elevating the play of the entire team.
