The Houston Rockets are getting pulled into another star trade rumor. Is there any more truth to it this time around? Furthermore, if there was, how much would it really help the team?<\/p>\n
The latest NBA star to become embroiled in Houston trade rumors<\/a> is Sacramento Kings point guard De’Aaron Fox<\/a>. Apparently, the move even has the approval<\/a> of player-turned-podcaster Jeff Teague<\/a>. It’s a significant step down from the Giannis Antetokounmpo<\/a> rumors floating around before the Greek Freak himself swatted them out of existence with his dominant NBA Cup run<\/a>.<\/p>\n Even before Giannis’ long-term commitment to the Milwaukee Bucks became more credible, Houston<\/a> had claimed they weren’t interested. Would their attitude really be any different with a star so much further down the NBA pecking order?<\/p>\n Fox is a seemingly career-long borderline All-Star with only one venture across that border in 2023. He did win the inaugural Clutch Player of the Year Award<\/a> that same year. Fox even earned third-team All-NBA honors for leading<\/a> the Sacramento Kings to 48 wins and third in the West.<\/p>\nFox’s Star Credentials<\/h3>\n
