Fox had 24 points (9-19 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal over 36 minutes during Monday's 116-96 loss to the Spurs.

Fox closed Monday's 111-110 win over the Heat with 28 points (11-21 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds and five assists across 37 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Fox is believed to be playing through a minor pinky injury, but the ailment hasn't bothered the star floor general thus far. Even though Fox opened the 2024-25 season with a subpar (for his standards) showing, he's been his usual dominant self overall, surpassing the 20-point mark in all but one of his last seven contests while averaging 25.7 points, 5.8 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game in that span.

Fox told reporters after Saturday's 131-128 overtime loss to the Raptors that he is playing through a ligament injury in his left pinky finger, Chris Biderman of The Sacramento Bee reports.
EDGE Analysis
Fox dislocated his left pinky finger during training camp, but he was able to play through the issue after X-rays came back negative. Despite the injury occurring on his dominant hand, it hasn't caused a major drop-off in Fox's efficiency from the field, as he's shooting 47.7 percent from the field through the first six games of the regular season. However, he did go 0-for-11 from three-point range during Saturday's overtime loss and finished with 24 points, six rebounds, one assist and five steals over 43 minutes.

Fox closed Friday's 123-115 win over the Hawks with 31 points (11-16 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and four steals in 37 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Fox delivered a season-high scoring mark in this contest and also posted his best shooting line of the campaign, missing just five of his 16 attempts from the field. The star floor general is having an excellent season while sharing the court with two other high-usage players in Domantas Sabonis and DeMar DeRozan. His scoring numbers have experienced a slight decrease, which isn't surprising following the offseason addition of DeRozan, but his assists are up. Through five games, Fox is putting up 23.4 points, 5.0 rebounds and 6.6 assists per game.

Fox had 19 points (8-15 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, six assists and one steal across 31 minutes during Tuesday's 113-96 win over the Jazz.
EDGE Analysis
Fresh off surpassing the 10,000-point mark for his career in the 111-98 win over the Trail Blazers on Monday, Fox delivered another solid showing in the second half of a back-to-back set. Even though he couldn't reach the 20-point plateau for a third straight game, at least he showed more efficiency with his shooting, and this was the first time he made more than 50 percent of his field goals. Through four outings in 2024-25, Fox is averaging 21.5 points, 7.5 assists and 4.5 rebounds per game while shooting 46.4 percent from the field and a meager 29.2 percent from beyond the arc.

Fox registered 28 points (9-20 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 7-8 FT), five rebounds, 10 assists and two steals across 41 minutes during Saturday's 131-127 loss to the Lakers.
EDGE Analysis
Fox notched another excellent assist total, but his shot volume kicked in during the narrow loss. He nearly doubled the point total from his first game (15), delivering a result we'll see countless times during the season. The addition of DeMar DeRozan gives Fox another excellent assist source to pad his totals.
