Sacramento Kings star point guard De’Aaron Fox is preparing for his third NBA season. His stellar sophomore season in Sacramento, where he experienced across the board statistical improvement, has led to a growing reputation around the NBA.

Now, the Fox is going international. After being added, along with Kings teammate Marvin Bagley, to the USA Men’s Basketball select team, the 21-year-old has received a promotion.

Sacramento Kings young star De’Aaron Fox has been promoted to the National USA Basketball roster with a good chance to make the team, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.

Fox joins fellow point guards Kemba Walker and Kyle Lowry on the USA main roster. Lowry is currently recovering from thumb surgery, so Fox is favored to make the World Cup roster.
