De'Aaron Fox On Trade: That's Kings Decision To Make
De'Aaron Fox spoke openly about the possibility of him being traded by the Sacramento Kings, but he says the decision will be made by the franchise. Fox has messaged to the Kings that he doesn't plan on signing an extension with the team in the offseason ahead of his 2026 free agency. "That's their decision to make. I can't tell them not to listen to offers or I can't tell them to listen to offers," Fox said. Fox was also asked whether he requested a trade from the Kings. "No. You would know if I did," replied Fox. As the Kings evaluate trade offers, Fox did admit he has a preferred team he would like to be traded to. The San Antonio Spurs are reportedly the team Fox hopes to join, but he didn't publicly confirm it. "For sure, I think everybody has a preferred destination," Fox said. "I think everybody has a preferred destination if they're not in the place that - or if they're not going to be in the place where they are in the moment. I think it's natural."
