Role
Fox is San Antonio's projected starting point guard, the veteran speedster leading a Finals-tested group. He is one of the fastest players alive with the ball and a proven closer. The question is how minutes shake out with Harper and Castle emerging behind him.
How he got here
Sacramento drafted Fox fifth overall in 2017 out of Kentucky. He is now a Spur and the projected starting point guard for 2026-27.
