Sabonis is an amazing fit. Leading the league in rebounds and the team in assists along with 20 pts a game. He single handedly makes the Kings a playoff team.

Fox is playing like a fringe MVP candidate. Some may scoff at this notion but the main stat to prove this is he is shooting 57% in clutch moments. The next closest players to him in this category is Luka Dončić at 47%. This is what separates superstars from all stars. In the very least, Fox should make his first All-Star game this year. If he continues playing like this, he should at least be mentioned in the discussion of MVP candidates.

This team is deeeeeep. Monk is living up to the hype pairing him with Fox and coming off the bench. They great shooting with Monk, Huerter and Murray and have a dynamo backup point guard in Davion Mitchell, and several role players are embracing their role.

In summary, the team has transformed from a young and unproven team to a veteran team overnight. As long as they can avoid injuries, they look destined to make the playoffs for the first time in 16 years.
