De'Aaron Fox Leads San Antonio in Scoring, Reflecting on Career Highs and Efficiency Challenges

De'Aaron Fox recently led San Antonio with 26 points (10-20 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three assists, two steals, one rebound, and one block in a 111-101 win over the Grizzlies. He achieved career highs in made three-pointers (2.9) and steals (2.0) in 2023-24, finishing top 20 in eight-category fantasy leagues for the first time despite lower field goal (46.5%) and free throw (73.8%) efficiency. Fox has demonstrated improved durability, playing 147 games over the last two seasons. His career includes All-Star and All-NBA selections, with a recent season averaging 25.0 points, 4.2 rebounds, 6.1 assists, and 1.1 steals. While shooting percentages, particularly from three (31.6% over three years) and the free-throw line (72.2%), remain improvement areas, Fox's role as a primary offensive option is secure. He signed a five-year, $163 million max extension, positioning him as a potential Top 25 fantasy player if he refines his shooting.
