Watch: De'Aaron Fox shoots down the Bulls

While DeMar Derozan and De'Aaron Fox traded big shots down the stretch in Wednesday night's showdown between the Bulls and Kings, it was Fox who got the ball last.

Fox hit a three-pointer to give the Sacramento Kings a 117-114 win over the Chicago Bulls, just seconds after DeRozan had nailed a four-point play to tie the game.

The call on DeRozan was a questionable one, but the referees confirmed it on review, sending him to the line for a chance to tie the game. Earlier this season, the Kings lost multiple games after bad calls went against them. This is a different team, now, thanks in part to the league's best clutch player. And so it was once more on Wednesday, with Fox wiping out the bad taste of that borderline foul call.

Both Fox and DeRozan were great in the 4th; Fox was just a little bit greater, a little bit later.

With the win, Sacramento moved back into second place in the Western Conference. Brutal home loss for Chicago, too, as they had a chance to pull into 10th place and the play-in with a victory in this one.
