00:00A weekend of blockbuster trades around the association one that was more expected last night

00:07But still a very large deal in the NBA Zach Levine makes his way from Chicago to Sacramento

00:13De'Aaron Fox in return heads to San Antonio as he wanted to in the Chicago Bulls

00:20Get back a crop of players and their own

00:232025 first-round pick back from San Antonio. We'll talk about Zach Levine

00:29Reuniting with DeMar DeRozan perhaps in California's capital in just a bit

00:34But the real headline Joe is De'Aaron Fox

00:37He wanted to be dealt from Sacramento did not really want to be there in a long term

00:42Wanted to play with Victor Wiminyama in San Antonio

00:45And that's exactly what he gets. De'Aaron Fox has spent all eight years of his NBA career in

00:52Sacramento big weekend for guys that were drafted fifth overall in two consecutive NBA drafts

00:57Luka Doncic in 2018 traded, of course to the Dallas Mavericks, or he was drafted third overall Trey Young fifth

01:04regardless De'Aaron Fox fifth overall in

01:072017 by the Kings and that's been where he has been the entirety of his time in the NBA oddly enough

01:15Just an all-star once entering this season in his NBA career back in 2022

01:2123 but still a guy that averages 25 points per game over six times and five boards and now pairs with Victor

01:29Wiminyama making San Antonio perhaps rather enticing in the Western Conference

01:36Not only does he get Victor Wiminyama, but he gets every other young player that San Antonio has built around

01:43Wiminyama over the last couple of years so they literally lost

01:48Nothing

01:49But they gained a all-star point guard. That is gonna bring in some leadership

01:54That's that's gonna be great for everyone and they're still they still have all their cap space

02:00And they got all of these young players on on rookie deals, so they're not making any money

02:06They got all their draft capital

02:08The San Antonio Spurs in a position to do whatever and build this roster in any way they want

02:15I don't know another team in the NBA that is sitting as pretty as the San Antonio Spurs are right now
