DeAaron Fox

[VF21]

Any questions?

(I have to keep pinching myself. We've waited a long time for this...)

 

[dude12]

He’s a treat to watch

 

[LPKingsFan]

Best player on the court this evening. The only thing that stops him is when he briefly forgets that.

 

[Padrino]

He’s officially my new favorite NBA player. The leap from year one to two is astounding. He’s dynamic. A dogged competitor. A rugged defender. A future superstar. And a smart, likable kid, to boot.

 

[Sluggah]

Where’s the Fox gif?

 

[Dime Dropper]

He is electrifying. The athleticism, the big rebounds, big shots, leadership, the lockdown defense. We're lucky to have this kid. I hope he's a King for life.

 

[Joshoua]

That’s my point guard

AND he's wearing the uniform of the freaking SACRAMENTO KINGS!!!

 

[OffTheWallJamal]

Can we give him a lifetime contract.... like now already?

You mean this one?

I used it in the game thread but I'll gladly repeat it.

 

[VF21]

That's what I said. We need to lock him up for the next decade at least.

And now, I'm having a Firenog to celebrate!!

Hell no. he's a STAR

I wasn’t around for the 1998/99 season as I was just 8 years old and had just come to the states as a soccer fanatic, but this is something real and this team is real. They have captured me in the same way that the Kings did when I watched them play for the first time in 2001. That was when I dropped the soccer ball and picked up a basketball.

Been through some great times, a lot of crappy times, but I really really hope it’s my turn to feel a 1998 type of season. I want to relish every second.

Savor every single moment. Celebrate each victory. Cheer your heart out. Enjoy every single step on the journey because it goes by all too quickly. I was around back then - and way before then having been an NBA fan since 1963 and a Kings fan since 1985 - and I wish I had realized then how rare and special these moments are. Treasure them all!

 

[Larry89]

He's so fast my food goes cold when I'm watching because I keep having to look up

 

[Sac.Kings]

Just saw a funny comment on YouTube on Fox that got a chuckle out of me.

“This man is basically sonic the hedgehog”

 

[ockingsfan]

Fox looks like he is playing at another speed than everyone else on the court.

Just the ease and speed that he plays at, it's like no one I have ever seen before in the NBA.

He can milk the shot clock down to like 2 seconds and then turn on the jets and make an easy layup or a floater. It's like WOW every time.

 

[Sneak]

AND he's wearing the uniform of the freaking SACRAMENTO KINGS!!!

Hell yeah! He's ours, he wants to be here, and he looks to be scheduled for the HOF!

You can't take a second off while watching the Kings now. I hate replays, we always miss something.

This is one of the biggest moments of the season so far. When knew he was fast. We knew he could handle. I knew he could shoot. HIs playmaking just keeps getting better. He is a defensive weapon now to use in crunch time. This is a luxury most teams don't have. The Fox can just take over games. He is 20 years old?

 

[Chupacabra]

Tee hee!

 

[Sac.1989]

I tell you what he aint.......DeAaron Fox

 

[Kings_of_California]

Every time I see a PHX box score, I see Jackson toiling in mediocrity. The guy is a turnover machine, and more often than not he's just not hitting his shots. Apparently even his defense (his supposed best attribute) is whatever. He looks like a straight bust.

To make matters worse, the Suns need a PG more than anything.

I love Fox. I still can't believe we finally got one. Thank you Phoenix.

Saying Jackson is mediocre is a compliment dudes pure garbage. We dodged a bullet with that one Phoenix saved us especially if we ended up with JJ and stayed 5-7 in this years draft

Yea the reason I hesitated in calling him pure garbage is because Phoenix can't seem to develop players. I can't tell whether they actually suck or just haven't been coached up right.

Regardless, I was reading their message board and one user said he was at a game, and he saw the coach talking to Josh and he wasn't listening at all, rolling his eyes.

Then he said once Jackson got into the game he loafed around on the first possession.

I think the dude is already checked out.

 

[fnordius]

Thank you Phoenix.

Once the Maloofs got out of the basketball business, Robert Sarver became the league's worst owner, and deserves full credit for how horrible they've become.

Only one way to find out. Send Ben to PHX for JJ

I think Fox has clearly separated himself this year from the rest of the 2017 class.
