**CHICAGO, IL** – Sacramento Kings point guard De’Aaron Fox will return to the starting lineup for Sunday’s game against the Chicago Bulls, ending a three-game absence due to a glute injury. Fox sustained the injury during a game against the Memphis Grizzlies on January 3rd. Initially listed as questionable, interim coach Doug Christie confirmed Fox’s availability shortly before tip-off.

The Kings have surprisingly maintained their momentum during Fox’s absence, extending their winning streak to six games, including a victory over the reigning NBA champion Boston Celtics on Friday. This winning streak showcases the team’s depth and resilience.

Before his injury, Fox was averaging an impressive 26.7 points, 4.9 rebounds, 6.2 assists, and 1.6 steals per game. His return significantly boosts the Kings’ chances of extending their winning streak against the Bulls at the United Center. The Kings (19-19) face a Bulls team (18-20) looking to halt their own recent struggles.
