2725925, They can play alongside one another.

Haliburton is a 42% 3-point shooter. He's 6'5 with a good wingspan. If you want to run a multiple playmaker system, they honestly fit really well together. Fox is more the dribble drive, Haliburton is more the shooter.

He still needs to put on some muscle-- he's got the frame for it, but he's pretty skinny right now-- so I wouldn't be surprised if Haliburton starts his career as Fox's backup, only occasionally playing alongside him. But if Fox is signed to a long deal, playing them side by side seems like the obvious hope for the Kings going forward.

And for an organization not known for ever making the smart basketball decision-- they're still insistent that Marvin Bagley isn't a 5 for some reason-- they're doing something savvy here imo.
