- Net Worth: De’Aaron Fox Contract History
De’Aaron Fox has spent 8 seasons playing for the Sacramento Kings but has signaled that he won’t resign his next contract with the same team. It means he’ll likely get traded before his contract is up, which could be as soon as the 2024-25 trade deadline. If not, it may happen in the offseason before the 2025-26 season begins. Fox would be a very good fit with the Rockets if they swap him for Fred VanVleet + draft picks, but Rafael Stone says he’s going to keep the same core together since they’re doing so well. You never get anywhere without taking risks. Fox being younger than VanVleet should be the only motivation you need. If more teams act like the Rockets, he won’t get moved until the offseason. 2/2/2025
