Less than 24 hours after the historic NBA blockbuster trade that sent Anthony Davis to Dallas in return for Luka Doncic, another former Kentucky star was also in the headlines for another monumental deal.
Former Kentucky Wildcat De’Aaron Fox, formerly the star for the Sacramento Kings, was dealt to the San Antonio Spurs in a three-team deal that also included the Chicago Bulls.
As first reported by ESPN Senior NBA Insider Shams Charania, the Kings traded Fox and 28-year-old former USC point guard Jordan McLaughlin to the Spurs. In this same trade, the Kings received Bulls star Zach LaVine, 20-year-old French small forward and shooting guard Sidy Cissoko, three first-round NBA draft picks and three second-round picks.
