The Sacramento Kings were able to secure a victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Saturday after Harrison Barnes nailed a game-winning shot at the buzzer. De'Aaron Fox was the player who delivered the full-court pass to Barnes and is letting everyone know the pass shouldn't go unnoticed:

With nearly six seconds remaining in the game, Fox was able to convert an and-1 play to give the Kings a 97-96 lead over the Cavaliers. Following Fox's and-1, Collin Sexton scored on a goaltend for Cleveland to retake the lead over Sacramento with under two seconds remaining in the game.
Being that the Kings had no timeouts remaining, they were forced to go the entire court for a score to end regulation. Sacramento chose to have Fox inbound the ball, which led to him delivering a pinpoint pass to Barnes, who nailed the fadeaway 3-pointer as time expired.
In Saturday's thrilling game, Fox led the way with a game-high 36 points, four rebounds, and six assists. Dishing out passes to his teammates has been a strength for Fox this season, as he's currently dishing out a career-best 7.3 assists per game.
Ever since Fox entered the league in 2017, he has been known for his uncanny quickness on the offensive and defensive end of the floor. But during Saturday's game, Fox showed that he has more than just speed to his game, and he's making it known that he's capable of operating an offense in the NFL with his passing abilities.
