They've had so many injuries this year, and you can tell that they are trying to hold on to all of that positivity that came with the strong start they had while also trying to figure out how do we take the next step. So Orlando comes to mind. I'm leaving somebody out, but I mean... Go ahead.

that you can go and trade for that we know of but in the summer maybe you have more of a bidding war perhaps and it is very difficult to get these teams to a place yeah to your point mid-season yeah to pull something like this off again i already said like houston's out of the running because mid-season doesn't work for them the other two teams that i was blanking on miami and the clippers are frequently mentioned with fox um you know now the miami thing

You know, that's kind of interesting. You know, you never know. We could see, does a Fox and Butler situation kind of run headlong into one another? You know, I think whatever the Butler situation ends up being is potentially a three, four, five team deal. Tough to put together. But, you know, you have two big time pieces in Butler and Fox now in play.

But yes, to your question, the summertime is easier logistically. But the question becomes, do the Kings lose leverage by that point? I don't love the gun to the head analogy, but the point gets across. It's even more intense in the summer where you are running out of time. Absolutely, for a small market franchise like the Kings, you cannot run the risk of losing Fox for nothing.

And I'll also say that if you think about the Kings' history with this front office, with Monty McNair and Wes Wilcox, when they traded for Damanis Sabonis,

the pacers they shocked the world by moving tyrese halliburton that was kind of ahead of a timeline that people did not see coming i think they have shown a willingness to do something and strike while the iron is hot even if you know it causes waves publicly and as a quick aside to that you know during that time

you know hyla burton got moved because he was the guy with the value you know what i mean like fox got floated at that time but back then he his contract was something that most teams didn't have interest in he was not as good as he is now and he had a lot more time left on that deal

And I share that to kind of remind folks that while Fox, the perception of him now is he's one of the franchise centerpieces, and that is true, but it was not that long ago that even De'Aaron himself knew that he might be in play, you know, with the team being the ones potentially motivated to move him. So, you know, they've been active before.
