Tue Jun 25 2024 | 10:16 | De'Aaron Fox Not Interested In Signing Extension This Year |
Sacramento Kings point guard De'Aaron Fox isn't expected to ink an extension with the team this year. According to The Athletic, the 2023 All-Star wants to see how the roster takes shape for the long haul before committing himself to the Kings. There is also the added incentive of earning a bigger deal if Fox makes an All-NBA team. His current $163 million contract has two more years left to run. Fox has taken big strides as a player in recent seasons, with the Kings' playing style suiting him like a glove. The 26-year-old averaged career-highs in points (26.6), rebounds (4.6), and steals (2.0) in 2023-24, leading the league in the latter category. |

Sacramento Kings guard De'Aaron Fox (knee) will play against the Chicago Bulls on Monday.

Wed Feb 28 2024 | 20:48 | De'Aaron Fox Out On Wednesday |
Sacramento Kings guard De'Aaron Fox (knee) is now out for Wednesday's meeting with the Denver Nuggets. He injured his left knee on Tuesday in the loss to the Miami Heat. However, the 26-year-old finished with 27 points in 39 minutes. Fox did go through shootaround on Wednesday, so there's a good chance he'll be back in the lineup on Friday in Minnesota. Davion Mitchell is expected to slide into the starting lineup. But the 2021 No. 9 overall pick has averaged just 8.3 points in three starts this season, meaning he's hard to trust for fantasy purposes. On the other hand, Malik Monk should spend more time at the one, brightening his fantasy outlook on Wednesday evening. |

Wed Feb 28 2024 | 20:02 | De'Aaron Fox Will Go Through Warmups |
According to Sacramento Kings head coach Mike Brown, guard De'Aaron Fox (knee) will go through pre-game warmups ahead of Wednesday's meeting with the Denver Nuggets. If all goes well, he'll suit up. The 26-year-old suffered a left knee contusion in Tuesday's loss to the Miami Heat. Yet, he still finished with 27 points while logging 39 minutes. Without question, Denver needs him out there against the defending champs. However, if Fox can't play, Malik Monk could see more action at the one, regardless of whether it's starting or off the bench, making him a must-start in all fantasy setups. |

Fox has made at least 12 field goals in each of his last five showings, piling up 31.6 points, 7.2 rebounds, 7.2 dimes, and 2.6 steals per game covering this interval ahead of a tough matchup against a Nuggets group that's allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points to opposing point guards, according to DraftKings scoring. |

Sat Feb 24 2024 | 18:58 | De'Aaron Fox Playing With Shoulder Issue |
According to Jason Anderson of the Sacramento Bee, guard De'Aaron Fox has been playing with a right shoulder injury. Fortunately, the 26-year-old reported the issue is "minor" and hasn't had an MRI because it hasn't been "serious enough." Fox has played exceptionally well this season, averaging a career-high 26.8 points with 5.6 assists and 4.1 rebounds. He's also shot 37.5% from behind the arc. For now, fantasy managers shouldn't worry too much, even though there's a chance the 2017 No. 5 overall pick could miss a few games down the line. If Fox does end up going on the shelf, Keegan Murray would be the guy to benefit the most from a production standpoint. |
