Fox is dealing with a minor shoulder injury but he's on track to take the court Sunday against New Orleans, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.
EDGE Analysis
Fox suffered some type of shoulder injury Friday night against Memphis, although head coach Dave Joerger noted there isn't any structural damage. Joerger noted that he's "planning on playing him (Fox)" Sunday, but "we'll see." Fox will likely have to test his shoulder in pregame warmups before the Kings confirm his status.

Fox compiled 28 points (10-18 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-9 FT), 12 assists, three rebounds, two steals and two blocks across 37 minutes in the Kings' 132-113 loss to the Thunder on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
One game after playing just six minutes versus the Timberwolves, Fox bounced back to equal his monthly high in playing time and post his third straight 20-point effort. Fox also generated his second 12-assist tally of December, and he managed to extend what qualifies as the best stretch of shooting of his young career. With Wednesday's 55.6 percent effort, Fox has now drained 50 percent or more of his buckets in five of the last six games in which he's logged double-digit minutes, and he pushed his monthly success rate from the field to that mark as well. The second-year guard's usage levels and across-the-board improvement currently have his fantasy stock soaring.

Fox finished with just one rebound in six minutes during Monday's 132-105 loss to Minnesota.
EDGE Analysis
Fox was basically given the night off Monday after the team fell behind by double digits inside the first few minutes. He and a number of the starters did not make it back onto the court after the first period in what was a bitter blow for owners. It is a tough one to take but he will likely be much better Wednesday against the Thunder.

Fox posted 25 points (9-19 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), nine assists, six rebounds and two steals across 35 minutes in Friday's 130-125 loss to the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Fox is in line to be one of the league's most improved players as he's put together a prolific campaign as the Kings' floor general. The 20-year old's season average of 18.1 points and 7.6 assists has vaulted him into a higher tier among fellow point guards and is a must-start in all formats.

Fox finished with 16 points (5-11 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 5-8 FT), seven assists and one steal in 26 minutes during Tuesday's 122-105 victory over the Suns.
EDGE Analysis
Fox had 16 points and seven assists Tuesday, helping the Kings to a blowout victory. The starters all saw limited playing time with the game well in their control after just one quarter. Fox has been magnificent to begin the season and is showing no signs of slowing down. The Kings will get a couple of nights off before traveling to Cleveland to face the struggling Cavaliers in what could be another favorable matchup for the sophomore guard.

Fox turned in 15 points (4-16 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 7-7 FT, six assists, four rebounds, four steals and a blocked shot across 36 minutes in Saturday's 111-110 win over the Pacers.
EDGE Analysis
Fox offset a lukewarm shooting performance with a season-high four steals to go along with six assists. Fox's output has become much more reliable this season as the floor general of a much-improved Kings squad. The former Kentucky standout flies a bit under the radar, but he's one of the best point guards in the West this season.

Fox netted 17 points (6-13 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), nine assists, three rebounds, two steals and one block across 32 minutes in the Kings' 133-121 loss to the Clippers on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Fox turned in a strong all-around effort in defeat, generating an impressive assist total for the fourth time in the last five games and recording a block for the third consecutive contest as well. Fox has scored in double digits in 11 of 13 November contests, and he continues to demonstrate impressive across-the-board improvement in his second season.

Fox supplied 13 points (5-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-5 FT), three assists, two rebounds, three steals and one block across 26 minutes in the Kings' 133-112 loss to the Jazz on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Fox checked off every box on the stat sheet while bouncing back from his 3-for-14 shooting effort against the Warriors on Saturday. The second-year point guard has turned in a couple of clunkers overall in the last four games, but he's mostly been a reliable source of both scoring and assists for fantasy owners thus far. Factoring in Sunday's production, he's averaging 17.5 points, 7.5 assists, 4.0 rebounds and 1.2 steals while shooting an improved 47.1 percent.

Fox managed 19 points (6-14 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 13 assists and seven rebounds across 37 minutes in the Kings' 119-110 win over the Jazz on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Fox worked perfectly in concert with Willie Cauley-Stein, which led to his fourth game with at least a double-double in November. The second-year guard bounced back nicely from an outlier 1-for-10 performance from the field Monday against the Thunder, and he's now dished out 13 dimes in back-to-back games. Given his role as primary ball handler, Fox's considerable improvement this season has been integral to the Kings' surprising success.
