The NBA world was shocked on Saturday evening, as ahead of the NBA's February 6th trade deadline, the Los Angeles Lakers and Dallas Mavericks agreed to a three-team deal centered around of swap of Anthony Davis for Luka Doncic. However, the NBA's trade deadline was still expected to see some names moves, such as Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler.

Another one of those names expected to move was Sacramento Kings star De'Aaron Fox. Fox, who requested a trade from the Kings last week, is a one-time All-Star and All-NBA selection. Given his age and status as an elite guard, he was set to be a major trade piece on the market. As rumors linked him to a move to San Antonio, a deal has finally been struck.
