We do. And possibly more than one. Bagley keeps this up and gets a bit more comfortable he could very well be in ROY conversations.
But Fox is the kind of guy that makes every one else better. Buddy and he are a GREAT backcourt combo. Folks our team... is still so young! We have a core for ten years.

....reminds me of what Chauncey Billups would do for Detroit
Fox this year (so far) = defensive badass. Everything else is secondary to this important step in development. We've got a player on our hands. Anyone else thinking we'd better pay willie too? Ive been on record as being against willies preseason comments, but he may be the second most important player to our success. Just win baby (im a niner fan)
I think tonight he not only played better basketball but he's carrying the team to winning. I've watched lots of good basketball players put up good numbers, but tonight he put other guys in position to be successful in a way that I haven't seen him do to that extent. It's really exciting to watch him progress. Glad he's a King!
Is this the thread I can pile on to say "told ya so!" to all those that contested the pro-draft De'Aaron Fox crowd leading up to the 2017 draft and throughout all of last season?
I'm far from the smartest guy in the room or on the website, but I was very vocal in my liking of Mr. FOX and his game. What we're seeing now is exactly what I thought would eventually happen. I've given the reasons many times.
Elite talent, super smart, super competitive, wants to be great, won't accept losing, very coachable, hard worker, plays defense. There are numerous others things I could list. My point all along has been that players with all those attributes rarely fail. It's just a matter of time til the success shows.
TBH, I think Buddy Hield is of the same mold. He doesn't have the same athleticism and speed skills as FOX, but he's an elite shooter that is learning how to do the other things that helps teams win. Rebound, defense, passing, etc. He's a very hard worker and looks to improve his weaknesses.
Match that with Bogie and Bagley ..... OMG!
