Are the Sacramento Kings better off WITHOUT De’Aaron Fox? | The Big Number

Jan 9, 2025

The Sacramento Kings are on a five-game win streak with the latest two victories coming with De’Aaron Fox on the sidelines. With this in mind, Tom Haberstroh and Dan Devine reveal this week’s Big Number and evaluate if the Kings are better off WITHOUT De’Aaron Fox on the court and, if so, should they trade him before the deadline?

Dan brings in four Little Numbers that explain what’s going right and what’s still wrong with Sacramento this season including Keon Ellis’ rising star and Keegan’s Murray’s drop in production. Dan also dives deep into the Kings’ offensive possessions in transition and compares their expected total wins this season with their actual win total.

The pair give an update to their over/unders competition and wrap by sharing their latest Yahoo Sports stories on Victor Wembanyama & potential first-time NBA all-stars.
