Fox (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Pelicans, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.
EDGE Analysis
Fox was initially added to the injury report as questionable due to a left hamstring issue, and the Kings have since decided to hold him out as a precaution, per Anthony Slater of The Athletic. Look for Davion Mitchell and Matthew Dellavedova to take on larger roles at point guard in Fox's absence.

Fox (hamstring) is a game-time call Monday against the Pelicans, according to James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento.
EDGE Analysis
Fox participated in shootaround and remains questionable to play. However, Ham reports that the Kings will be cautious considering it is a hamstring injury. If Fox is unable to play, we could see Davion Mitchell get extended run Monday. In six starts this season, Mitchell has averaged 8.7 points and 3.2 assists.

Fox is questionable for Monday's game against the Pelicans due to left hamstring soreness.
EDGE Analysis
Fox dealt with a wrist injury last week but has been back in action over the last two games. He averaged 29.0 points, 7.0 assists and 4.5 rebounds in 35.5 minutes per game during those matchups but is now dealing with a hamstring issue that jeopardizes his availability against the Pelicans. If Fox sits, Davion Mitchell and Matthew Dellavedova could see increased roles.

Fox logged 25 points (10-22 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-7 FT), two rebounds, seven assists and one steal across 37 minutes during Saturday's 138-134 loss to the Timberwolves.
EDGE Analysis
Few players have been playing as well as Fox over the past month, but he finally dipped below the 30-point mark after an impressive eight-game run of exceeding that benchmark. A slightly errant shot and lack of opportunity beyond the arc was the culprit for Fox in the loss, but this blip on the radar shouldn't be much of a concern.

Fox posted 33 points (12-22 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 8-8 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists and one steal across 34 minutes during Friday's 128-127 victory over the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
Fox was one of Sacramento's standout performers in this upset win over another playoff contender in the Clippers, and the star point guard has now reached the 30-point plateau in eight games in a row. He's averaging a robust 34.3 points per game while shooting 57.5 percent from the field in that span.

Fox (wrist) is available for Friday's game versus the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
Fox has been upgraded from questionable to available Friday after missing the previous game with left wrist soreness. The star guard will likely replace Davion Mitchell in the starting five against the Clippers.

Fox (wrist), who is questionable for Friday's game against the Clippers, participated in the Kings' morning shootaround, Frankie Cartoscelli of Sactown Sports 1140 reports.
EDGE Analysis
Fox also fully participated in Thursday's practice and said afterward that he intends to play Friday against the Clippers. His presence at shootaround makes it increasingly likely that he'll be cleared to return from his one-game absence as long as he feels good following his recent activity.

Fox (wrist) indicated Thursday that he intends to play in Friday's game versus the Clippers, Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento reports.
EDGE Analysis
Fox practiced in full Thursday and seems to believe he'll be back in action after missing Tuesday's rematch with Oklahoma City. The team's injury report, slated to surface later in the day, should provide a clearer picture of his status for the contest, but the signs seem to point toward at least a probable designation.

Fox (wrist) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, and the team is optimistic the guard will return soon, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.
EDGE Analysis
We'll learn more once the Kings release an official injury report, but Fox's absence should be short-lived. If he's out again Friday versus the Clippers, Davion Mitchell would presumably draw another start.

Fox (wrist) is out for Tuesday's game against the Thunder.
EDGE Analysis
Tuesday will mark just the sixth game Fox has missed all season. It's an unfortunate time for him to suffer an injury, as he's been on a heater lately, averaging 34.4 points, 6.9 assists, 4.3 rebounds and 1.9 steals in his past seven games. In his absence, more prominent roles should be in store for Davion Mitchell, Malik Monk and Matthew Dellavedova.
