Fox has been superb for the Kings

The Kings have been getting great performances from their backcourt duo in the recent matches. Buddy Hield has been in scorching form from the deep. He is averaging 27 points per game in the last 5 games. In this match, he scored the game-high 28 points and also shot 6-11 from beyond the arc.

De'Aaron Fox has been the unquestionable leader for the Kings. His speed and playmaking have determined the Kings play this season. He is leading his team to a good position in this deep West. Fox had a double-double in the game. He scored 19 points and had the game-high 11 assists.

The Kings will be relying a lot on this backcourt duo if they are to reach the playoffs in the Western Conference. The Kings next visit the Staples Center to play against the Clippers.
