Spurs' De'Aaron Fox: Pours in 24 points during loss
Rotowire
Fox accumulated 24 points (8-23 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 7-10 FT), four rebounds, three assists and three steals across 37 minutes during Sunday's 114-109 loss to the Timberwolves in Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals.
Fox matched his second-best total of the playoffs in the Game 4 defeat, as the backcourt led the way for the Spurs following Victor Wembanyama's ejection. The momentum swung back in Fox's direction in the never-ending production battle with Stephon Castle, as deciding between the two standouts is a frequent test for DFS players. Both of them produced high totals in the loss, but Fox matched Dylan Harper to lead the team in scoring.

Spurs' De'Aaron Fox: Rough night from deep
Rotowire
Fox finished with 18 points (7-16 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 3-5 FT), four rebounds and six assists in 36 minutes during Friday's 120-108 victory over the Trail Blazers in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
After shooting 40 percent from downtown in Game 1, Fox has shot a combined 2-for-9 from that range in his last two appearances. However, despite the shooting woes, the 28-year-old has remained involved on both ends of the floor, and he may be required to do more in Game 4 on Sunday if Victor Wembanyama (concussion) isn't cleared to return.

Spurs' De'Aaron Fox: Scores 24 in loss to Denver
Rotowire
Fox closed with 24 points (8-21 FG, 4-14 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, five assists and one block in 33 minutes during Sunday's 128-118 loss to the Nuggets.
Fox handled a steady workload in the regular-season finale and posted a strong fantasy line even when considering his lack of efficiency from the field. Fox averaged 18.6 points, 3.8 rebounds and 6.2 assists per game in 72 regular-season appearances. His numbers took a hit compared to the 2024-25 campaign, but that's due to the emergence of the young talent surrounding him, such as MVP candidate Victor Wembanyama (ribs), Stephon Castle and Dylan Harper (thumb). Still, Fox should operate as the Spurs' No. 2 option on offense in the playoffs.

Spurs' De'Aaron Fox: Struggles from field despite win
Rotowire
Fox contributed seven points (3-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, six assists and two steals across 23 minutes during Monday's 129-114 victory over Chicago.
Victor Wembanyama and Stephon Castle led the Spurs in this routine 15-point win over the Bulls, so Fox's poor shooting and overall subpar showing didn't have much impact. Fox has been relegated to a secondary role in the Spurs' offensive scheme, but this was a new low for him. This seven-point output tied his second-worst scoring mark since the All-Star break, but considering he was averaging 17.9 points per game since the beginning of March heading into Monday's game, there's a strong chance this might have been nothing more than a down game for the veteran guard.
