De’Aaron Fox, point guard of the San Antonio Spurs, has reportedly agreed to a four-year, $229 million contract extension with the organization. The final year of the deal does not include a player option, meaning Fox will be tied to the Spurs through the 2029–30 season. San Antonio acquired the one-time All-Star at last season’s NBA Trade Deadline in a blockbuster deal with the Sacramento Kings.
This extension comes as a surprise to some peers around the league. Especially considering Fox will now be earning more than stars like Stephen Curry, Luka Dončić, and Devin Booker. With this move, the Spurs are placing significant faith in De’Aaron Fox as a cornerstone of their franchise moving forward.
