Fox’s night was a mixed bag. While he shot the ball well and finished a blocked shot shy of a complete stat line, the point guard was also responsible for five turnovers. While the Spurs were able to get away with that against the Kings, who have lost 16 straight, that may not be the case on Monday against the Pistons. San Antonio plays four games in Week 18.

Fox did about as much as he could in the blowout win, which limited him to 22 total minutes. In his time on the floor, he used a couple of three-pointers to help finish as one of six Spurs players to reach double figures in scoring. But his playmaking was also on full display, as he fell just a couple assists short of securing a double-double. The production wasn’t outstanding, but fantasy managers will take it. He’ll have a chance to log a bigger performance on Saturday against the Kings.

Fox only played 17 minutes in Tuesday’s win over the Lakers, as the Spurs were never challenged. That wasn’t the case on Wednesday, and the speedy guard stepped up with one of his best performances of the season. In scoring 27 points, Fox shot 11-of-16 from the field and provided excellent value in the assist and steal categories. The Spurs will complete their Week 17 schedule with two games after the All-Star break, starting with the Suns on February 19.

Fox is available after being listed as questionable with back soreness. The 28-year-old point guard has had a double-double in his last two games including Thursday, which was also against the Mavericks. He’ll look to extend his streak to three on Saturday as the Spurs close out Week 16.

Fox is uncertain to play on Saturday due to back soreness. He most recently served the Mavericks with a double-double in the Spurs’ win on Thursday, which was his second consecutive. Fox will have a chance to extend his streak to three straight double-doubles on Saturday if he’s able to play. If unavailable, Dylan Harper or Jordan McLaughlin could realistically slot into the starting unit.

While Stephon Castle (14/3/4/3/2 in 26 minutes) was available after missing Sunday’s win over the Magic, his return did not prevent Fox from hitting double figures in assists for a second consecutive game. This is the second time the Spurs guard has accomplished this feat this season, with the first occurring in mid-November. Fox will look to make it three straight when the Spurs visit Dallas on Thursday.

This is the second time the game has been moved back due to the Spurs’ issues getting out of Charlotte following Saturday’s loss to the Hornets. Initially scheduled to begin at 3 PM Eastern, the start time was pushed back to 7 PM, and now to 9 PM.

Fox’s production was relatively mild on Wednesday, but was still good enough to come within arm’s reach of a 20-point double-double. He shot efficiently and made the most of his shot attempts, leading him to finish as the second-leading scorer on the team. Ball security was an issue for Fox in this game, but otherwise, he had a fine performance against the Rockets.

San Antonio’s starting backcourt of Fox and Stephon Castle (five points, four rebounds, five assists and one steal) combined to shoot 5-of-14 from the field on Sunday. While that wasn’t the only reason for the loss, it certainly didn’t help the Spurs’ cause. Over the past two weeks, Fox has been close to a top-50 player in eight-cat formats, with the foul line (63.3 percent) being his issue. Given the season-long value, Fox should be fine moving forward.

Fox scored 12 of his 31 points during the fourth quarter, a fitting cap to one of his best games of the season. This was his third 30-point game of the season and first since December 3, with the Spurs guard shooting the ball exceptionally well from the field. Over the past two weeks, Fox has offered fourth-round per-game value in eight-cat formats.

With backcourt partner Stephon Castle (8/6/9/3 with two three-pointers) playing through an illness, Fox took his game up a notch on Saturday. In recording his fourth double-double of the season, the Spurs’ guard matched his season-high with 12 assists. Shooting 43.7 percent from the field, Fox has been an 11th-round player over the past two weeks in eight-cat formats.

Fox was one of several Spurs players who found production in limited minutes on Thursday. The veteran guard logged just 23 minutes of action, thanks to a comfortable Spurs lead, but still nearly finished with 20 points. Fox’s trio of three-pointers was important as far as fantasy basketball is concerned, though he didn’t have much of an impact elsewhere. Regardless, he performed well in his minutes and should be a bit more rested for Saturday’s game against the Timberwolves.

Fox eclipsed the 20-point plateau for the first time in three games, falling one rebound shy of his fourth double-double performance of the year. The 28-year-old facilitator hasn’t lived up to expectations from a scoring standpoint in his first full season with San Antonio, but he’s still provided fifth-round fantasy value, averaging 21.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, 5.9 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.3 blocks through 29 games.

Fox hit two corner threes during the fourth quarter, which boosted the final points tally for the night. Over the past two weeks, the Spurs guard has offered eighth-round per-game value in eight-cat formats. Fox’s problem recently has been the foul line, as he’s making just 65.4 percent of his attempts. While he’s never been an elite foul shooter, that’s poor for a guard of his caliber. The Spurs begin a four-game Week 12 in Memphis on Tuesday, and they’ll have two back-to-backs.

San Antonio had little trouble taking care of business against the floundering Pacers with Fox reaching the 20-point plateau for the fourth time in his last six contests since December 21. It would’ve been an even bigger night from a scoring standpoint had he not been ice-cold from three-point range where he went just 2-of-9 in an uncharacteristically poor effort. The 28-year-old guard will be asked to shoulder more of the scoring workload with Victor Wembanyama (knee) likely to miss a couple additional games. The Spurs are back in action on Saturday night when they face the Trail Blazers to close out a back-to-back.

Fox bounced back after scoring only 14 points in the loss to the Cavaliers Monday to drop 25 points in the win over the Knicks Wednesday. The 28-year-old point guard once again struggled from behind the three-point line. Over the last two games combined, Fox is 2-of-14 from behind the three-point line. A 38 percent three-point shooter this year, he’ll look to add some threes to his otherwise excellent stat line against the Pacers Friday.

Fox is back after missing Saturday’s loss to the Jazz. His return means that Julian Champagnie will head to the bench, lowering his fantasy ceiling. San Antonio’s other four starters are unchanged.

Fox did not play in Saturday’s loss to the Jazz, opening up a spot in the starting lineup for Julian Champagnie. While Champagnie’s impact was muted due to a 0-of-6 night from beyond the arc, he’s capable of offering solid deep-league streaming value when allowed to start.

Fox has been ruled out after he was initially listed as questionable with left adductor tightness. Without the 28-year-old point guard, Dyan Harper or Julian Champagnie will move into the starting lineup. Both are in play as streaming options.

Fox is dealing with tightness in his left adductor. If he’s unable to play, Dylan Harper and Julian Champagnie are potential replacements in the starting lineup. While Harper boasts a higher long-term ceiling, fantasy managers needing three-pointers should not sleep on Champagnie if he starts.

Limited to six points in Tuesday’s win over the Thunder, Fox was outstanding in Thursday’s rematch. Finishing with a game-high 29 points, he shot 9-of-11 from the field in the first half. Some of Fox’s teammates took over in the second half to help San Antonio move to 3-0 against the Thunder this season. Fox is providing fourth-round value in eight-cat formats, and the partnership between him and Stephon Castle continues to strengthen.

Fox served as San Antonio’s primary offensive catalyst, delivering a robust all-around effort in a stat sheet-stuffing performance. He knocked down 5-of-7 from three-point range and shot 52.6 percent from the floor on a team-leading 19 attempts. The 28-year-old guard has been in a little bit of a rut from a scoring standpoint over the past week so it was a positive sign to see him get back on track in this one. The Spurs are back in action with a three-game week that includes a pair of matchups against the Thunder before closing the week against the Jazz.

Fox was one of four Spurs to score either 22 or 23 points on Saturday, with the team rebounding from a brutal 0-of-11 start from three to hand Oklahoma City its second loss of the season. Fox has scored at least 20 points in 14 of the 17 games he’s appeared in this season, and he’s providing top-25 value in eight-cat formats. After Tuesday’s NBA Cup final against the Knicks, Fox and the Spurs will play three games over the final four days of Week 9. That’s good news for fantasy managers.

Fox led the Spurs with a +21 in 31 minutes in the 132-119 victory over the Lakers on Wednesday. Stephon Castle, who returned from a hip injury Monday, played 27 minutes while Dylan Harper played 20 minutes off the bench. Castle’s minutes should only increase, meaning less of the offense will ultimately run through Fox, whose scoring is crucial with Victor Wembanyama (calf) still sidelined.

Fox has been able to provide late-game magic in multiple games recently to help lead the Spurs to wins, but he wasn’t able to get it done in this one. Still, he was able to turn in a strong line. Fox has now scored at least 25 points in four straight games and in nine of his last 10 appearances. He’ll continue to keep the Spurs afloat until Victor Wembanyama (calf) returns to the lineup.

While Fox did not record any defensive stats and was responsible for seven turnovers, eight-cat managers will undoubtedly accept his stat line. The Spurs guard, whose two free throws with 1.4 seconds remaining gave his team the lead for good, recorded his second 20-point game of the season. With Victor Wembanyama and Stephon Castle sidelined, more of the offense runs through Fox, which raises his ceiling despite the turnover concerns.

Fox checked back into the game with 4:07 left in the fourth, with the Spurs down 113-110. From that point on, he had 11 points and an assist to deliver a win for San Antonio. Fox has been able to help the Spurs stay afloat with Victor Wembanyama (calf) sidelined, and he has been able to provide third-round value to this point. He is having his best season from the free throw line and the second-best field goal percentage of his career. Fox will continue to shine as the focal point of this team until Wemby returns, and he’ll have no issues still being a star after that.

The Spurs have won five of their last seven games, but they were unable to outscore a red-hot Timberwolves squad without both Victor Wembanyama (calf) and Stephon Castle (hip) in this one. The 27-year-old point guard topped 25 points for the sixth time in his last seven contests. He’s delivered third-round value for fantasy purposes this season, averaging 24.1 points, 3.5 rebounds, 6.6 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.4 blocks through 11 games. The Spurs will kick off a four-game week on Teusday against the Grizzlies before road matchups against the Magic, Cavaliers and Pelicans.

While Devin Vassell and Julian Champagnie handled most of the scoring, Fox led the way with 12 assists on Friday. And he’s been highly valuable to fantasy managers recently, providing top-20 value in nine-cat formats over the past two weeks. While some may be tempted to sell high, that may not be the best course of action. With Stephon Castle and Victor Wembanyama out, Fox has a higher ceiling, and taking advantage of this would be a good idea.

Fox erupted for his highest scoring performance of the season on Wednesday. The three-point shot worked in his favor, as free-throw production was also a key in his scoring total. The near-40-point outing also marked the sixth game in a row that the lefty guard has scored at least 24 points. Additionally, he finished as the Spurs’ leader in assists and came up two dimes short of the double-double. He’s integrated himself into the rotation nicely after missing the start of the season due to injury.
