Just because the Dubs failed to make major moves before noon pacific on Thursday hardly means the locker room won’t be affected by the one trade Mike Dunleavy Jr. and the front office did make, though.</p><p>After his team’s <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/warriors-news-red-hot-steph-curry-praises-surging-dubs-total-team-effort-in-blowout-win-over-pacers" rel="noopener">impressive blowout win</a> over the Indiana Pacers on Thursday night, Stephen Curry was asked for his thoughts on Golden State’s approach at the trade deadline. Unprompted, the four-time champion brought up Cory Joseph, lamenting the absence of a veteran “connector” who he and his teammates will sorely miss going forward.</p><p>“Sucks losing Cory. If anybody knows Cory Joseph and his personality, his presence…He’s the ultimate professional,” Curry said. “He brings just a great spirit about it in the locker room helping the young guys. He’s been around, knows how to play. That type of guy is a connector and we’re gonna miss him for sure. That was obviously a tough one. I understand the business of the game and the money and all that, but we’re gonna miss him for sure.”</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Steph will miss what Cory Joseph brought to the Warriors 🤝 <a href="https://t.co/VjO9PYIhlm">pic.twitter.com/VjO9PYIhlm</a></p><p>— Warriors on NBCS (@NBCSWarriors) <a href="https://twitter.com/NBCSWarriors/status/1755800113065427386?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 9, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><h2><b>Cory Joseph’s time with Warriors</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/What-Cory-Joseph-brings-to-Warriors-as-Stephen-Curry_s-new-backup.jpg"></figure><p>The <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/warriors-news-golden-state-trades-cory-joseph-pacers-keep-andrew-wiggins-deadline" rel="noopener">Warriors traded Joseph</a> along with $5.8 million to the Pacers in exchange for a 2024 second-round pick just before the deadline. The deal saved Joe Lacob millions in luxury tax savings while giving Golden State at least one pick—even if it’s a second-rounder—in this year’s NBA Draft. Joseph’s exit also opened up another roster spot, one potentially filled by current two-way player Lester Quinones, who surpassed the 32-year-old in Steve Kerr’s rotation over the last few games.</p><p>Golden State signed Joseph to a one-year minimum deal in free agency. Brought in to serve as the Warriors’ third point guard behind Curry and Chris Paul, Joseph played a semi-frequent role over the first two months of the season as multiple perimeter contributors were lost to injury. He got his most consistent run in January, after <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/warriors-news-steve-kerr-clarifies-dubs-backup-point-guard-plan-chris-paul-sidelined" rel="noopener">Paul went down with a broken hand</a> in a narrow home victory over the lowly Detroit Pistons.</p><p>Joseph averaged 2.9 points, 1.7 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 14.4 minutes off the bench across 10 consecutive appearances, shooting 11-of-25 overall (44%) and 7-of-17 from three-point range (41.1%). He wasn’t the impact defender he was in his prime, though, occasionally exploited by the opposition’s perimeter stars. Just as problematic, teams unthreatened by his three-point proficiency laid off Joseph away from the ball offensively, cramping Golden State’s spacing.</p><p>Curry’s glowing appraisal of Joseph still shone through on the court and on the bench, however. He fought tooth and nail every time he took the floor for the Warriors, most recently and memorably early in a win over the Atlanta Hawks on January 25th, helping his team get a win with the effort, passion and tenacity it was initially tough to muster so soon after beloved assistant Dejan Milovic’s passing.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/pacers-next-step-after-cory-joseph-trade-with-warriors" rel="noopener">Indiana waived Joseph</a> immediately after acquiring him, opening a roster spot to re-sign veteran forward James Johnson. It’s unclear where he’ll go from here for the remainder of 2023-24; there’s also a possibility the 13th-year veteran is relegated to trying his hand in free agency come July. What’s absolutely certain, though, is that Joseph will be missed by his former teammates and coaches with the Warriors.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

After <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/warriors-news-golden-state-trades-cory-joseph-pacers-keep-andrew-wiggins-deadline" rel="noopener">re-acquiring the veteran point guard</a> from the Golden State Warriors at Thursday’s trade deadline in exchange for a second-round pick and cash considerations, Indiana has decided to waive Joseph, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.</p><p>The Pacers and Warriors agreed on a deal that sent Joseph and a 2024 second-rounder back to Indianapolis shortly before Thursday’s 3:00 p.m. (EST) trade deadline. Golden State also provided Indiana with <a href="https://twitter.com/TonyREast/status/1755690413418041646" rel="noopener">$5.8 million</a> in the deal, according to Pacers insider Tony East, as a sweetener to get off Joseph’s contract and lower owner Joe Lacob’s luxury tax bill. Indiana still has one second-round pick at its disposal in the upcoming draft, too.</p><p>Joseph previously played for the Pacers in 2017-18 and 2018-19, establishing himself as a reliable, defense-minded backup point guard. While his presence in the locker room would’ve no doubt been a boon for Indiana, there was just no realistic path to playing time for him behind franchise point guard Tyrese Haliburton, stalwart backup TJ McConnell and emerging sophomore combo guard Andrew Nembhard.</p><p>The Pacers are also <a href="https://twitter.com/TonyREast/status/1755711448406278433" rel="noopener">hoping to sign</a> veteran forward James Johnson before Thursday’s matchup with the Warriors, according to East.</p><p>Joseph was a bit player for the Warriors this season, only finding his way into Steve Kerr’s rotation due to injury and absences. He shot 35.9% overall and 31.0% from deep in 26 appearances, also falling off defensively compared to his peak—no surprise considering Joseph is 32 years old.</p><p>Joseph’s immediate future remains uncertain. While a valued voice who’s long had the respect of teammates and coaches, he’s overstretched as a primary backup point guard at this juncture of his career, best suited for an end-of-bench role. Joseph could be picked up by a team with an open roster spot soon, or try to find his way back onto a roster in free agency this summer.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

With Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green once again running things in the Bay Area, as well as Chris Paul joining the title hunt, the Warriors will enter the 2023-24 season as <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/warriors-2023-offseason-recap-chris-paul-stephen-curry-draymond-green-klay-thompson" rel="noopener">championship contenders once more</a>.</p><p>However, injuries have stood in the way of this team reaching their full potential over the years, and it appears as the Warriors will once again have to find production in their depth due to ailments. Green recently <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/warriors-news-draymond-green-ankle-injury-before-training-camp" rel="noopener">suffered an ankle sprain</a> during a scrimmage and on Monday, Golden State gave an official update on his status.</p><p>According to The Athletic’s Anthony Slater, the team stated that Draymond would be <a href="https://x.com/anthonyVslater/status/1708903949678657844?s=20" rel="noopener">re-evaluated in two weeks</a> due to a left lateral ankle sprain. Veteran point guard and newly added Cory Joseph will also be re-evaluated in two weeks, as he is currently dealing with a lower back lumbar strain. Both players are set to miss the start of training camp.</p><p>Green is an invaluable piece of the Warriors’ championship pursuit. What he’s able to do for them on both ends of the floor cannot be replaced, which is why the team awarded him with a new <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/warriors-news-draymond-green-free-agency-4-year-100-million-contract" rel="noopener">four-year, $100 million contract</a> in free agency. While it is unfortunate that he will miss training camp and potentially the start of the regular season, it is definitely good news that Green will be re-evaluated in two weeks.</p><p>In a total of 73 games last season, Green averaged 8.5 points, 7.2 rebounds and 6.8 assists per game while playing at an All-Defensive level. In fact, Draymond made the NBA All-Defensive Second Team, the eighth All-Defensive honor he’s earned in his now 11-year career.</p><p>“I feel good, I feel like I am improving fast. I’m a pretty fast healer,” <a href="https://x.com/NBCSWarriors/status/1708916176284426625?s=20" rel="noopener">Green told reporters</a> at Media Day on Monday. “I didn’t quite foresee this coming into the season, but everything happens for a reason. I’m excited because we have a great performance team and I’ll be in even better shape by the time, whatever that is, when I start playing.”</p><p>As for Joseph, the Warriors signed him to a one-year, minimum deal in free agency for added point guard depth. Given his championship experiences with the San Antonio Spurs earlier in his career, Joseph figures to be another veteran voice in what has turned out to be one of the more experienced locker rooms in the entire league.</p><p>Both Green and Joseph do not appear to have significant injuries and the Warriors are holding out hope that they will both be ready for opening night against the Phoenix Suns on October 24.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

A veteran who has been a part of both contending and rebuilding teams through the years, Joseph will provide Golden State with a sense of stability in their second-unit, something they have been lacking through the years.</p><p>Before embarking on his journey with the Warriors for the 2023-24 season, though, Joseph was set to represent Team Canada in the FIBA World Cup at the end of August. This will no longer be the case though, as the 31-year-old guard has <a href="https://www.thestar.com/sports/basketball/jamal-murray-iffy-for-fiba-world-cup-as-canada-leaves-for-exhibition-series/article_156dd824-6506-542e-bd2b-3647e85ede50.html" rel="noopener">withdrawn</a> to prepare for the upcoming NBA season with his new team, according to Doug Smith from the Toronto Star.</p><p>In addition to wanting to prepare for his time with the Warriors, Joseph also experienced an issue with his back during Team Canada’s training camp. This ended up being another reason why he will no longer represent Canada at the World Cup.</p><p>The Warriors will be Joseph’s sixth NBA franchise, as he has spent time with the San Antonio Spurs, Toronto Raptors, Indiana Pacers, Sacramento Kings and most recently, the Detroit Pistons. In a total of 12 seasons, he has averaged 7.1 points and 3.0 assists per game while shooting 44.2 percent from the floor and 35.0 percent from three-point range.</p><p>Heading into his 13th NBA season, Joseph will be looking to prove that he is one of the missing pieces in the Warriors’ championship equation. Recently, he revealed that one of the driving forces that led him to signing with Golden State was <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/warriors-news-cory-joseph-andrew-wiggins-friendship" rel="noopener">his relationship</a> with fellow Canadian basketball player Andrew Wiggins.</p><p>“We played together with Team Canada and we’ve always been super close,” Joseph said of Wiggins. “His brother was just here at my wedding, so yeah, we’ve always been super close and I’m excited to play with him because obviously he’s an amazing player. He brings a lot to the team, so I’m excited to have the chance to just be out there with him.”</p><p>While it is not necessarily good news that Joseph is dealing with back discomfort, Warriors fans should be relieved that their new veteran will be taking time to prepare for the upcoming season instead of playing in the FIBA World Cup.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Early on in his career, he won a championship with the San Antonio Spurs and then he continued to build off of that experience by becoming a veteran leader at the point guard position. This is why he could have a significant impact coming off the bench for the Golden State Warriors.</p><p>Two of the best seasons of Joseph’s career came when he was with the Toronto Raptors from 2015-2017 and this is not a surprise, as he was born in Toronto, Ontario. Playing for Team Canada through the years an developing a relationship with other Canadian basketball players in the NBA, Joseph will feel at home once again in his career even though he is with the Warriors because of Andrew Wiggins.</p><p>Both Andrew and his brother Nick have held a close relationship with Joseph through the years and now, these two friends and Canadian-born talents will look to <a href="https://youtu.be/CiaBeTTQPDE" rel="noopener">find success together</a> in the Bay Area after <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/warriors-news-nba-champion-guard-donte-divincenzo-ty-jerome-exits" rel="noopener">Joseph agreed</a> to a one-year contract with Golden State..</p><p>“I am really excited. I played with his older brother Nick back in Toronto and Andrew would always be at the practices,” Joseph told reporters recently. “My dad knows his dad, so from a very young age, rec ball in Toronto, we’ve known each other.”</p><p>Already having a strong relationship with Wiggins, joining the Warriors made even more sense for Joseph this offseason. There’s nothing better than playing alongside those you are familiar and friends with, which is exactly why the veteran guard is ready for the next chapter of his career with the Warriors to begin.</p><p>“We played together with Team Canada and we’ve always been super close,” Joseph went on to say. “His brother was just here at my wedding, so yeah, we’ve always been super close and I’m excited to play with him because obviously he’s an amazing player. He brings a lot to the team, so I’m excited to have the chance to just be out there with him.”</p><p>Playing in 62 games with the Detroit Pistons this past season, Joseph averaged 6.9 points and 3.5 assists per game while shooting 38.9 percent from three-point range. For seeing less than 20 minutes per game, Joseph’s numbers were extremely efficient.</p><p>Alongside <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/warriors-news-corey-joseph-explains-fit-alongside-steph-curry-chris-paul" rel="noopener">Stephen Curry and Chris Paul</a> in the Warriors’ backcourt, Joseph knows that he will not be the focal point and that’s fine given his set of skills. The 31-year-old guard has always been a great secondary ball-handler in his team’s backcourt that hardly turns the ball over. Between making smart decisions and being a factor defensively when his number is called, Joseph will be looking to help the Warriors win their fifth title since 2015.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

However, during their dynasty, they’ve leaned on valuable depth players as well. That won’t change during the 2023-24 season with the team adding players like Dario Saric and Cory Joseph to the roster. Warriors head coach Steve Kerr <a href="https://www.mercurynews.com/2023/07/20/steve-kerr-shares-thoughts-on-mike-dunleavy-jr-s-offseason-chris-paul-and-personal-goals/" rel="noopener">recently commented</a> on Saric and Joseph’s potential impact on the team.</p><p>“We needed guys like Saric and Cory Joseph who have been through the NBA rigors and understand what it means to be a leader from the middle of the roster and how important that is,” Kerr said, per Shayna Rubin of <i>The Mercury News</i>. “Mike (Dunleavy) really recognized that was an area we needed help, so he went out without many resources and fortified our roster and put us in position moving forward.”</p><h2><b>Saric and Joseph’s impact on the Warriors</b></h2><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/warriors-news-dario-saric-free-agency-1-year-contract-golden-state" rel="noopener">Signing Saric</a> gave the Warriors a reliable big man with veteran experience. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/what-cory-joseph-brings-to-warriors-as-stephen-currys-new-backup" rel="noopener">Joseph will also give</a> Golden State extra depth on the roster.</p><p>Saric, 29, played for the Phoenix Suns and Oklahoma City Thunder during the 2022-23 season. Overall, he averaged 6.4 points per game. For his career, he’s averaged 11.0 points and 5.6 rebounds per contest. Golden State hasn’t found stability in the post for the most part, so perhaps Saric can emerge as a key part of the roster in 2023-24.</p><p>On the other hand, Joseph, 31, is a steady guard who will serve as a backup for Stephen Curry. He may either play alongside Chris Paul or back up both CP3 and Curry, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/warriors-news-chris-paul-role-uncertainty-golden-state" rel="noopener">depending on if the Warriors</a> opt to start Paul or not. Joseph played for the Detroit Pistons last season and averaged 6.9 points and 3.5 assists per game. He’s averaged 7.1 points and 3.0 assists per contest for his career.</p><p>Both Joseph and Saric will play important roles for Golden State as the Warriors look to win yet another championship during the upcoming 2023-24 campaign.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He was <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/warriors-news-stephen-curry-leaves-game-vs-pacers-with-scary-shoulder-injury" rel="noopener">sidelined for three weeks</a> in December and January last season due to a left shoulder subluxation, then went down again with ligament damage to his left for another extended period just a month later.</p><p>Curry turns 36 next March, making him about two years younger than the Warriors’ second point guard. Chris Paul has talked extensively about the sweeping benefits of going vegan in 2019, keeping him fresh over the 82-game grind while better steeling him for rigors of the postseason in the twilight of his playing days.</p><p>But the Point God will get more time planned time off in 2023-24 than any of Golden State’s future Hall-of-Fame veterans, and his penchant for playoff muscle injuries is entirely predictable by now. There’s also a chance <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/grading-warriors-blockbuster-chris-paul-jordan-poole-trade" rel="noopener">Paul isn’t even on the roster</a> past next season’s trade deadline, moved as expiring salary ballast in a deal that balances out a guard-heavy roster and ups the Dubs’ championship hopes.</p><p>The Warriors desperately needed experienced depth behind Curry and Paul, basically, a distinction that applies to Joseph as well as anyone on the minimum market. He only makes this team even older, turning 32 in August, and certainly doesn’t address its deficiencies in overall athleticism and ability to pressure the rim.</p><p>But Joseph has played a full season’s worth of playoff games in his 12-year career and ranked top-10 in assist to turnover ratio last year. He can at least keep Golden State’s system churning on both sides of the ball when pressed into action.</p><p>The vast majority of market-rate minimum signings don’t provide much dynamism or upside, and a sense of reliability is all the Warriors really want out of a third point guard anyway. For what Joseph lacks in the former, he easily makes up for with the latter.</p><p><b>Plus on-ball defense</b></p><p>Curry quietly took a step back last season defensively, while Paul’s positive utility on that end is no longer at the point of attack. Neither of them will be targeted by ball handlers with the merciless effectiveness opposing teams <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/warriors-reactions-steph-curry-dubs-fall-just-short-against-kings-in-epic-game-1" rel="noopener">attacked Jordan Poole</a> in 2022-23, but Golden State’s star floor generals will be consistently put to the test defensively next season regardless.</p><p>Joseph represents the opposite end of that on-ball spectrum. He’s lost a half step in recent years, but remains a plus defender of point guards, with quick feet, active hands and a dogged, tireless approach. Andrew Wiggins, Gary Payton II and Jonathan Kuminga won’t be forced to guard star perimeter ball handlers with Joseph on the floor, freeing them to check the most threatening wing while affording Golden State extra doses of switchability and scheme versatility.</p><p>The West is absolutely loaded with game-breaking backcourt playmakers. Having Joseph in the fold, as a primary backup to Curry and Paul or even a situational “stopper,” will make the Dubs’ simple goal of limiting them easier to muster than last season, propping up team defense in the process.</p><p><b>Reliable spot-up shooting</b></p><p>Joseph isn’t some high-volume marksman, capable of sprinting around screens and splashing off-balance triples. Defenses will happily give him clean pull-up looks from deep in pick-and-roll and dribble hand-off actions. But he shot an elite <a href="https://www.nba.com/stats/player/202709/shots-dash?SeasonType=Regular+Season&amp;Season=2021-22" rel="noopener">44.3% on spot-up threes</a> last season, per NBA.com/stats, letting fly with more confidence than at any other point of his careeer.</p><p>Joseph should get plenty of clean looks on the weak side as defenses load to Curry and Klay Thompson. Expect him to blow past last season’s personal high water mark of 7.1 three-point attempts per 100 possessions. Though not an explosive or creative finisher at the rim, Joseph has some touch from floater range and is quick to attack overzealous close-outs, regularly making the right play after creating an advantage.</p><p>There aren’t many roster-worthy point guards in the league with less all-around scoring and playmaking juice than Joseph. He’s not a true halfcourt table-setter, offers little in transition and could be dared to prove it from beyond the arc before smart defenses fully rotate to him away from the play.</p><p>Golden State’s unique offense creates inherent advantages, though, and Joseph has just enough long-range shooting chops and decision-making comfort to exploit them when given the chance.</p><p> </p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Aside from Mixed Magazine, she was also featured in </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/ByaZ4DgAAWB/" target="_blank"><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Fleek Magazine’s The Heat Wave Edition</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> in June 2019. Moreover, Damaris has also been hired as a model for brands such as </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/_X7Vq6rECg/" target="_blank"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Ninas Beauty and Wellness</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">. </span></p><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Aside from her modeling career, Damaris appeared in various music videos such as Yo Gotti’s Check, Rick Ross’ Gallardo, 2 Chainz’ I’m Different, and many more. However, her most popular appearance was in Drake’s music video, Hotline Bling, in 2015. According to </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxpDa-c-4Mc" target="_blank"><span style="font-weight: 400;">YouTube</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, the hit music video has already garnered at least 1.8 billion views. </span></p><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">While Damaris is putting together a solid career in the entertainment industry, she also </span><a href="https://www.playersgf.com/2021/01/meet-cory-joseph-s-new-girlfriend-wife-family-kid-net-worth.html" target="_blank"><span style="font-weight: 400;">put up an online shop</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> called madebydamaris in </span><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/madebydamaris" target="_blank"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Etsy</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> and previously on Instagram. Her shop sells various products that are designed and handmade by Damaris, given that she’s also an artist. Damaris’ shop is currently taking a break. However, before this, the shop had already fulfilled at least 800 orders online since its launch in 2016. </span></p><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Damaris and Cory have been going strong as of late. Aside from Cory’s heartfelt annual birthday greetings in his </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/coryjoseph/" target="_blank"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Instagram account</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, they also have a lot of pictures together where they go to various trips including the desert, beaches, and many more. Although social media doesn’t show the truth all the time, it looks like the couple is happy to be with each other.</span></p><p><span style="font-weight: 400;"> But more importantly, Cory recently </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CS9nOCbFpaw/" target="_blank"><span style="font-weight: 400;">proposed to Damaris</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> in August, 2021. As expected, Damaris said yes to him in a heartwarming event. Fast forward to February 2022, Cory posted </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CaLwEW9g-If/" target="_blank"><span style="font-weight: 400;">photos of his fiance</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, who seemed to be flaunting a baby bump on the beach. With the caption “Blessings upon Blessings!!”,  Damaris and Cory could be expecting a baby together real soon. </span></p><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It’s great to see Damaris and Cory settling down. Here’s to wishing the couple plenty of blessings ahead as they start a family together. Nonetheless, this is all the current information we have on Cory Joseph’s girlfriend Damaris Lopez.</span></p><p>The post <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/cory-josephs-girlfriend-damaris-lopez/" rel="nofollow">Cory Joseph’s Girlfriend Damaris Lopez</a> appeared first on <a href="https://clutchpoints.com" rel="nofollow">ClutchPoints</a>.</p></div>    </body></html>

The veteran guard is under contract for next season as well, when he will be due around $8.5 million.</p><p>On the other hand, Cory Joseph has been a dependable depth option for the Kings this season, logging 21.5 minutes per game off the bench to accompany his 6.7 points, 2.2 rebounds and 2.4 assists.</p><p>The deal, <a href="https://twitter.com/WorldWideWob/status/1374942092254924801?s=20">according to Woj himself,</a> is a small one, but could still have a positive impact for both ball clubs. For Detroit, a couple more picks and an expiring contract helps them nicely to their rebuild timeline.</p><p>For the Kings, they add a starting caliber guard to the mix to provide backup for the trio of De’Aaron Fox, Tyrese Haliburton and Buddy Hield. Sacramento is still in the hunt for the playoffs, and after Wednesday’s win against the Atlanta Hawks and the acquisition of Wright, that goal could soon be realized.</p><p>It remains to be seen what other moves will the two teams make by the trade deadline, but it sure looks like they are positioning themselves nicely to make some key moves that have long-term effects.</p><p>The Kings have been active recently and have been involved in multiple trade rumors. In fact, Harrison Barnes has been a trade target of multiple teams, while they reportedly tried to send Marvin Bagley III to the Pistons as well–albeit to no avail.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The speedy floor general believes he can learn plenty from being around Joseph.</p><blockquote>“Defensively, he’s going to make me a much better offensive player,” Fox told <a href="https://www.nbcsports.com/bayarea/kings/why-guard-cory-joseph-ready-smaller-role-first-kings-season">James Ham of NBC Sports California</a>. “He’s a savvy vet. He’s been through it. He’s won a championship. You do nothing but learn and get better from a guy like that. He’s one of the best defensive point guards in the league and being able to go up against  guy like that in practice, it does nothing but help me.”</blockquote><p>Joseph, who has career averages of 6.9 points, 2.6 rebounds and 2.8 assists, is also eager to work with the 21-year-old guard.</p><blockquote>“You want to go to a place where you have an opportunity and also knowing that De’Aaron is the franchise player here, we know that,” Joseph said, “but I’m here to help in any way I can possibly do that with the organization and try to win games. That’s what I’m about,”</blockquote><p>Joseph will be an outstanding second-unit option who can lead the bench. Besides, with his experience, he can be a valuable veteran presence for the young Kings players like Fox.</p><p>It may be impossible to see the Kings come out on top of the Pacific Division just yet. However, Joseph will help Fox become the kind of star that will be able to do so.</p><figure class="op-tracker"><iframe><script>  (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){  (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),  m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)  })(window,document,'script','https://www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga');  ga('create', 'UA-66147751-16', 'auto');  ga('set', 'campaignSource', 'Facebook');  ga('set', 'campaignMedium', 'Instant Article');  ga('set', 'title', ia_document.title);  ga('send', 'pageview');</script><iframe>    <script type="text/javascript">        window._taboola = window._taboola || [];        _taboola.push({            article: 'auto',            ref_url: 'http://instantarticles.fb.com'        });        !function (e, f, u, i) {            if (!document.getElementById(i)) {                e.async = 1;                e.src = u;                e.id = i;                f.parentNode.insertBefore(e, f);            }        }(document.createElement('script'),            document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0],            'https://cdn.taboola.com/libtrc/clutchpoints-clutchpoints/trk.js',            'tb_loader_script');        if (window.performance) {          if (typeof window.performance.mark == 'function') {            window.performance.mark('tbl_ic');          }        }    </script>    </iframe></iframe></figure></article>    </body></html>
