De'Aaron Fox Returns, Kings Beat Bulls

De'Aaron Fox returned to the Sacramento Kings lineup against the Chicago Bulls after missing three games due to a bruised right glute, scoring 26 points in a 124-119 victory. His performance marked a significant contribution, as he shot 9-of-16 from the field, including four three-pointers, while also collecting nine rebounds and providing three assists. This season, Fox is averaging 26.7 points per game, ranking third among point guards. Meanwhile, the Bulls were without Coby White due to a strained neck, leading to Lonzo Ball starting for the first time since the 2021-22 season after two years of injury recovery. The Kings have maintained a six-game win streak, bolstered by Fox's return, which is crucial for their playoff aspirations. The victory improved the Kings' record to 19-19, while the Bulls fell to 18-20.
