De’Aaron Fox to Spurs, Zach LaVine to Kings in Three-Team Blockbuster

Sacramento reshapes roster, San Antonio pairs Fox with Wembanyama, Chicago enters rebuild mode

The Sacramento Kings have finalized a blockbuster trade that sends De’Aaron Fox to the San Antonio Spurs and brings Zach LaVine to Sacramento, in a three-team deal involving multiple players and draft picks.

The Spurs acquire an All-Star point guard to pair with rising superstar Victor Wembanyama, while the Kings add LaVine, who is averaging 24.0 points per game on career-best shooting splits. Chicago regains its 2025 first-round pick and acquires Tre Jones, Zach Collins, and Kevin Huerter to aid in a rebuild.

Trade details:

Spurs receive:

  • De’Aaron Fox (Kings)
  • Jordan McLaughlin (Kings)

Kings receive:

  • Zach LaVine (Bulls)
  • Sidy Cissoko (Spurs)
  • 2025 first-round pick (Hornets)
  • 2027 first-round pick (Spurs)
  • 2031 first-round pick (Timberwolves)
  • 2025 second-round pick (Bulls)
  • 2028 second-round pick (Nuggets)
  • 2028 second-round pick (returned from Bulls)

Bulls receive:

  • Zach Collins (Spurs)
  • Tre Jones (Spurs)
  • Kevin Huerter (Kings)
  • 2025 first-round pick (their own, returned from Spurs)

For San Antonio, pairing Fox with Wembanyama solidifies their backcourt, while the Kings gamble on LaVine and future draft capital. The Bulls move on from LaVine while acquiring young assets and regaining their first-round pick.

This trade follows the shocking deal that sent Luka Doncic to the Lakers and Anthony Davis to the Mavericks, making this one of the most eventful trade deadlines in NBA history.
