Former Sacramento Kings star De'Aaron Fox's custom home is for sale. Take a look

Miami Herald13-05-2025

Former Sacramento Kings All-Star point guard De'Aaron Fox and his wife, Recee, on Monday listed their refined home with a beautiful backyard garden for $3.1 million.
The custom-designed home sits on a well-landscaped, 1.13-acre lot in a tony enclave of Carmichael, a suburb of Sacramento, California.
With five bedrooms and six bathrooms, the contemporary, immaculate and gated estate is a fusion of sophistication, style and comfort across all of its 5,500 square feet of living space.
Earlier this year, the Kings basketball team traded Fox to the San Antonio Spurs as part of a three-team deal that also involved the Chicago Bulls. In the trade, Fox joined forces with rising star Victor Wembanyama in San Antonio.
Under soaring ceilings, the home flows indoors to outdoors from the grand entry out to the covered patio and centerpiece pool. Oversized sliding glass doors open the home up for seamless entertaining.
Listing agent Kelly Pleasant of Guide Real Estate said the home's design allows family members or guests to enjoy distinct living areas without ever feeling crowded. There are dual primary suites, each with spa-style bathrooms. One side of the house encompasses additional bedrooms and a flex room that can be used as an office, den, media room or gym.
'This is a perfect gift for a buyer who is really wanting that separation,' Pleasant said.
The home features multiple fireplaces and hardwood and stone floors.
There's a four-car garage with plenty of storage and an EV charger. The drive-through garage accesses the interior by way of a mudroom.
The gourmet kitchen is well-appointed with high-end appliances, a large quartz waterfall island and pantry and is equipped with a service kitchen.
The grounds have spaces that offer opportunities to add amenities, such as a chef's garden or accessory dwelling unit (ADU).
Fox, a 27-year-old father of two, bought the home in 2020 for $2.325 million, according to public records. The house was built in 2016.
Fox played basketball for the University of Kentucky during the Wildcats' 2016-2017 season. The Kings selected him in the first round on the NBA draft, with the fifth overall pick, in 2017. Fox averaged 21.2 points per game and 6.1 assists per game during his time in Sacramento, according to NBA.com.

With minutes left before their title dreams faded, Gilgeous-Alexander, Thunder's biggest stars stepped up

NDIANAPOLIS — "He never blinks, never shies away from the moment." Alex Caruso's description of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is apt. This was the biggest moment in Gilgous-Alexander's young career, and there may not be a more crucial one in the future. The MVP-leader of Oklahoma City had been bottled up again by the physicality and pressure of Indiana's defense for three and a half quarters. Every possession was tough for him, the Thunder couldn't shake SGA free. He couldn't get his teammates going and had zero assists on the night. Advertisement With 3:52 left in the game, Thunder coach Mark Daigneault leaned into his stars — he started asking for Gilgeous-Alexander and Jalen Williams pick-and-rolls. The goal was to force a switch and get Aaron Nesmith off SGA and get Andrew Nembhard on him — Gildgeous-Alexander shot 6-of-9 for the game with Nembhard as his primary defender. It worked. This pick-and-roll threw off the Pacers' defense just enough to allow SGA to score 15 of the Thunder's final 16 points (eight from the free throw line) in the final four minutes of the game and secure the win and tie the NBA Finals 2-2 heading back to Oklahoma City. " Winning, especially this time of the season, it comes down to the moments, it's going to come down to late game," Gilgeous-Alexander said. "Every team is good. There's rarely going to be a blowout. It comes down to the moments and who is willing to make winning plays on both ends of the floor. Advertisement "I relish those moments, love the moments, good or bad. When I was a kid shooting at my driveway, I'd count down the clock for those moments. Now I get to live it." Part of what keeps the Thunder calm and focused in those moments is Gilgous-Alexander's steady, focused, stoic demeanor. "You really wouldn't know whether he's up three, down three, up 30, down 30, eating dinner on a Wednesday," Daigneault said. "He's pretty much the same guy." "You wouldn't know if it was a preseason game or it's Game 4 of the NBA Finals down 2-1 with him," said OKC's Alex Caruso, who had 20 points and five steals of his own in the win. "That's why we have such a good mentality as a group. That's why we are able to find success in adversity. No matter what's going on, you look at him and he's the same. Underneath that stoic personality or (his) look on the court is a deep, deep-rooted competitiveness. That is sprinkled throughout the whole team." Holmgren's defense In those final minutes, the Pacers hunted another Thunder star, Chet Holmgren, getting him switched onto Tyrese Haliburton. That was the matchup Indiana wanted: Holmgren on an island against the Pacers' All-NBA guy. Advertisement It didn't work. "I had just given up two drives right before that. Just kind of trying to learn from those and play them better in those instances," Holmgren said of his play late. "I feel like I got a good contest. He was still able to get it off. He shoots a high-arcing shot. The whole time it's in the air, a lot's going through your mind. I'm just glad we were able to get those stops and close out the game." "We don't [switch] a ton with him because he's just so impactful at the rim, but he can really switch," Daigneault said. "It's funny, when he was coming out of the draft, that was one of the things that they really recognized with him, is that he's very switchable. He's got great feet. We just found ourselves behind the ball in a lot of plays tonight. The switching was able to get that under control late. We can't do that unless he can do that. He was outstanding tonight." Advertisement It feels like the Thunder snatched momentum in these NBA Finals with the win, tying the series 2-2 as they head home for Game 5. Still, this was a game where the Pacers were the better team for 42 minutes, as their defense effectively bottled up SGA and the Thunder for much of the night. It's a game they could have won if not for their own shooting troubles in the final minutes — they scored one bucket in the final five minutes — in the face of more defensive pressure. If the Thunder are going to win a critical Game 5 at home, they are going to need a lot more Gilgeous-Alexander, Williams and Holmgren.

Lakers insider chimes in on huge three-way trade idea suggested by fan

Lakers insider chimes in on huge three-way trade idea suggested by fan The Los Angeles Lakers need two main additional pieces this summer: a starting-level center and a two-way wing who is at least a 3-and-D player. They have limited trade assets and very little salary cap flexibility, and therefore, addressing both needs will be difficult. But perhaps where there is a will, there is a way. If the Lakers get creative enough in trade discussions, and if at least one other team is willing to do them a solid, perhaps they will significantly buttress their roster. On a recent episode of "Buha's Block," Lakers beat writer Jovan Buha invited insider Anthony Irwin from ClutchPoints. Buha explored a three-team trade a fan proposed that would give Los Angeles not only the center it badly needs but also an athletic two-way wing who was an All-Star starter just three years ago. In this trade idea, it would land Nic Claxton from the Brooklyn Nets and Andrew Wiggins from the Miami Heat while giving up forwards Rui Hachimura and Jarred Vanderbilt, big man Maxi Kleber, wing Dalton Knecht, guard Gabe Vincent, a 2031 first-round draft, this year's No. 55 pick and 2028 and 2030 pick swaps. While this trade looks good on paper for L.A., Irwin sounded skeptical that it would work in real life. "If there's a team that I would say might not be as interested, it would be Brooklyn, because Jarred Vanderbilt's contract is one of the more negative assets out there," Irwin responded. "I don't think the Nets would be interested in taking on Vando… Basically, the Lakers would have to throw another pick swap out there, or they would not be able to protect the first that they sent to Brooklyn in that case." "Claxton is someone who is going to have a lot of value around the league," he added. "If you're gonna send out Claxton and you bring back one of the worst contracts in the sport, then you really have to get paid for it." While Claxton would be the athletic, rim-protecting big man who is also a lob threat and a good rebounder that the Lakers need, Wiggins would also be a big get. He averaged 18.0 points a game and shot 37.4% from 3-point range this season, and he's also an excellent defender. At 6-foot-7, he can play at and defend multiple positions, and his experience winning an NBA championship with the Golden State Warriors certainly doesn't hurt. At age 30, he could provide at least two or three more productive years. But in this trade idea, Los Angeles would have to replenish its depth at the power forward and guard positions. If it has a plan to do so, perhaps this would be the can't-miss deal it would want to make.
