The San Antonio Spurs will be without their star guard De'Aaron Fox for the remainder of the season as he undergoes surgery to repair tendon damage in his left pinkie. Despite playing through the injury all season, Fox made the tough decision to opt for surgery to expedite his recovery and be fully prepared for next season. In his short time with the Spurs, Fox showcased his talent with an impressive performance of 32 points, 11 assists, 9 rebounds, and a steal in a recent win over the Dallas Mavericks.
Fox's absence adds to the challenges the Spurs have faced this season, as they are already missing key players like center Victor Wembanyama and coach Gregg Popovich. With Fox averaging 23.5 points, 6.3 assists, and 4.8 rebounds in a combined 62 games for the Spurs and Kings, his impact on the court will surely be missed. Despite the setbacks, the Spurs remain focused on their recovery and building chemistry for a strong comeback in the next season, making Fox's return a highly anticipated event for fans and teammates alike.
