Sacramento Kings: De’Aaron Fox Makes Jimmy Kimmel Debut
By Rafe Wong
Sacramento Kings’ guard De’Aaron Fox made his first appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Check out how his debut on the talk show went.
Not too long ago, Sacramento Kings’ rookie De’Aaron Fox took a break from training hard in the gym and decided to make a television appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
For people who are not familiar with Jimmy Kimmel Live, the show has a popular segment called “Mean Tweets”. In this bit, celebrities make an appearance on the show to read and react to a tweet meant to be negative towards them.
In a recent show from Kimmel, it featured a “Mean Tweets” bit featuring solely people in the NBA community, and Swipa The Fox was part of it.
Listed down below is the video of the entire segment that was on display yesterday. To skip to Fox’s appearance, click on the 54-second mark of the clip.

In the video, it shows Fox reading a tweet stating, “DeAaron fox look like a auntie in the face”, and as a result, little to no expression came from the Kings’ rookie.

Final Thoughts
It was cool to see De’Aaron make an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, and his reaction to his tweet was hilarious, in my opinion. But with that being said, I would say the best tweet and reaction from the whole segment came from Stephen A. Smith.

Overall, I would say that Fox has had a solid offseason in terms of balancing out basketball and fun. Although he has been on the basketball court working hard, he also has had his fun as he represented the Kings in the Draft Lottery and now was featured on Jimmy Kimmel.
Keep doing what you have been doing, De’Aaron. And hopefully, this summer will help you get better for the 2018-2019 season.
