Fox suffered a hip injury during Friday's loss to Portland, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports. Despite this, he finished with 28 points (7-18 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 11-14 FT), six rebounds and five assists over 34 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

Fox didn't reveal the severity of the injury, though he optimistic that he'll be ready to take the court for Saturday's matchup in Utah. His availability will depend on how his hip feels Saturday morning, per Anderson.

Fox finished with eight points (3-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-4 FT), five assists and a rebound in Wednesday's season-opening loss to the Suns.

EDGE Analysis

Fox looked rusty in Wednesday's season opener, failing to make an impact in any facet of the game. That said, it was likely just an off day for the third-year guard, who was one of the league's most exciting players last year, averaging 17.3 points, 7.3 assists, 3.8 rebounds and 1.6 steals in 31.4 minutes per game for the upstart Kings. He'll have a chance to bounce back Friday against Portland.

Fox (back) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's season opener against the Suns.

EDGE Analysis

Fox was dealing with some back soreness toward the end of the preseason, but he'll be ready for the opener. In 107 preseason minutes, he racked up 58 points, 24 assists, eight rebounds, eight steals and three blocks.

Fox (back) went through a full-contact practice Friday, James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

EDGE Analysis

Fox has been getting some time off while dealing with back soreness, but it seems like he's back in the swing of things now. He should be ready for Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Suns.

Fox (back) will sit out the Kings' preseason finale Wednesday against Melbourne United, James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

EDGE Analysis

As expected, the Kings will give Fox the night off after experiencing back soreness during the Kings' previous preseason contest. He'll conclude his preseason campaign with per-36-minute averages of 19.6 points, 8.1 assists, 2.7 rebounds, 2.7 steals and 1.0 block.

Fox (back) is unlikely to play in Wednesday's exhibition against Melbourne United, James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

EDGE Analysis

Fox was pulled from Monday's matchup due to a sore lower back, and the team is expected to hold him out of the preseason finale to get him ready for the regular season, which begins Wednesday in Phoenix.

Fox has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday's game against the Jazz due to a sore lower back, James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

EDGE Analysis

This doesn't appear to be a significant injury for Fox, but the team will shut him down as a precaution. He'll be considered day-to-day until further notice.

Fox produced 10 points (1-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 8-10 FG), six assists, two rebounds and two steals in 25 minutes during Saturday's preseason game against the Pacers.

EDGE Analysis

Despite struggling with his shot, Fox had a solid overall game. Notably, after averaging just 5.1 free-throw attempts per game last year, Fox managed to make it to the line 10 times, making eight attempts. His aggressiveness, especially in the face of his shot not falling, was encouraging and bodes well for the third-year guard moving forward.

Fox clarified Monday that he's completely healthy after leaving Team USA prior to the FIBA World Cup, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Sacramento reports.

EDGE Analysis

Fox leaving a USA team that had already suffered several high-profile departures came as a bit of a surprise, and the third-year guard continues to remain coy about his reasoning for the decision. "That's for me to know," Fox told a TMZ camera in Los Angeles. "I'm completely healthy." Read into that what you will, but the good news for Kings fans -- and fantasy owners -- is that Fox left Team USA on his own terms and not because of an injury.

Fox withdrew from Team USA on Saturday, Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Fox was promoted to the select team almost two weeks ago after several players dropped out of consideration and had a strong chance of making the final roster as a result. However, Fox has decided he rather focus on his upcoming season in Sacramento after a breakout campaign in 2018-19.
