Sam Amick thinks it will be ‘unfortunate’ if Kings fans boo De’Aaron Fox

Former Sacramento Kings guard De’Aaron Fox will return to Golden 1 Center with the San Antonio Spurs next Friday, March 7th, in his first game as a visiting player. How will fans in attendance respond to Fox’s first appearance at his old stomping grounds?

During Monday’s game between the Kings and Charlotte Hornets, fans started booing an “upcoming game” graphic displayed on the jumbo tron featuring Fox in a Spurs uniform.

The Athletic’s Sam Amick joined The Carmichael Dave Show with Jason Ross to share his thoughts on Fox’s perception within the Kings fanbase, shared why he feels it will be unfortunate if fans boo Fox, and much more.
