Fox is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game at Memphis, Sean Cunningham of ABC 10 Sacramento reports.

EDGE Analysis

Fox came off the bench his first two games back from the ankle sprain, but he's back in the starting lineup for Saturday's contest. The 22-year-old played 24 minutes during the front end of the back-to-back Friday against the Pacers, and he should be okay to at least play a similar workload against the Grizzlies.

Fox will come off the bench Friday against the Pacers, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Kings have been cautious with Fox since his early return from an ankle sprain, and while he's set to serve in a reserve role Friday evening, there's a good chance he'll log close to 30 minutes. He finished with 19 points, eight assists, two steals and two boards across 30 minutes in his first game back Tuesday against Charlotte.

Fox was a "full go" during Wednesday's practice but is expected to be a minutes limit for Friday's game against the Pacers and Saturday's game against the Grizzlies, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

EDGE Analysis

Considering Fox just returned from an ankle injury, the Kings will be cautious with him on the upcoming back-to-back. It's not exactly clear what kind of restriction Fox will be on given that he played 30 minutes in his first game back. More information may arrive following Thursday's practice.

Fox scored a team-high 19 points (6-13 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT) while adding eight assists, two rebounds and two steals in 30 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's 110-102 loss to the Hornets.

EDGE Analysis

Out since Nov. 8 with an ankle injury, Fox showed no rust and saw his usual amount of court time despite coming off the bench. The third-year guard could return to the starting five as soon as Friday against the Pacers, but Fox seems safe to plug back into fantasy lineups right away regardless.

Fox (ankle) has been cleared to play and will come off the bench Tuesday against Charlotte, Gary Gerould of the Kings Radio Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

As anticipated, Fox will return to action Tuesday following a 17-game absence due to a sprained ankle. The Kings will understandably exercise caution with their starting point guard by using him off the bench in his first contest back. Cory Joseph will continue to start for the time being.

Fox is expected to play in Tuesday's game against Charlotte according to coach Luke Walton, James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

EDGE Analysis

Barring any unexpected setbacks, the star point guard will return to action against the Hornets. Assuming that's the case, the Kings will have managed to finish with a near .500 record during Fox's absence. Prior to sustaining the injured ankle, the Kentucky product was averaging 18.2 points, 7.0 assists, 4.0 rebounds and 1.1 threes in 32.0 minutes per game.

Fox (ankle) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against Golden State, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

EDGE Analysis

As expected, Fox will miss a 16th-straight game as he continues to recover from a left ankle sprain. His next opportunity to return comes Tuesday against Charlotte.

Fox (ankle) is doubtful for Sunday's matchup against the Warriors.

EDGE Analysis

Fox expects to return soon from his sprained left ankle, but it's unlikely his return will be as soon as Sunday. Assuming he's out, his next opportunity to play arrives Tuesday against the Hornets.

Fox (ankle) is hopeful to return sometime within the next week, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

EDGE Analysis

Fox is optimistic about a possible return as soon as Tuesday against the Hornets, but he'll likely need to make significant strides over the weekend to make this happen. "I am surprised how fast it's been," stated Fox. "I knew I wouldn't be out as long as most people are with the Grade 3, but I didn't think it would happen this fast." A more concrete return date should come into focus early next week.

Fox (ankle) will be re-evaluated in 2-to-3 weeks.

EDGE Analysis

Fox has been sidelined since Nov. 11 due to a left ankle sprain, and while he's resumed non-contact basketball activities, the point guard is still unlikely to resume game action until at least late December. In the meantime, Cory Joseph should continue to fill in for Fox on the top unit.
