De'Aaron Fox agrees to massive $229 million extension with Spurs
The Spurs are ensuring their star guard sticks around for years to come. Point guard De'Aaron Fox agreed to a four-year, $229 million maximum extension with San Antonio on Monday afternoon, keeping him under contract through the 2029-30 season, according to ESPN. The Spurs acquired the one-time All-Star and All-NBA selection from the Kings last season. He appeared in 17 games for his new team before being shut down for the season due to finger surgery. Advertisement 4 De'Aaron Fox was traded to the Spurs at the trade deadline last season. AP Fox averaged 19.7 points and 6.8 assists per game in his short time in a Spurs jersey before the injury. Before being dealt to San Antonio, which was per his request, Fox averaged 25 points, 6.1 assists and 5.0 rebounds per game with the Kings. Advertisement 4 Fox will be the co-star alongside Victor Wembanyama for years to come with his extension. Charles Wenzelberg / New York Post While the one-time All-Star played just five games with Spurs superstar Victor Wembanyama, the two are said to have developed a close relationship and will be the leaders of a young team looking to blossom into a contender. The 27-year-old Fox will also be the leader of a young backcourt he'll share with Stephon Castle and Dylan Harper. 4 Stephon Castle starred as a rookie for the Spurs. AP Advertisement The former UConn Huskie Castle is coming off a Rookie of the Year season in which he averaged 14.7 points, 4.1 assists and 3.7 rebounds per game. Harper was the No. 2 pick in June's NBA draft out of Rutgers, where he averaged 19.4 points, 4.6 rebounds and 4.0 assists per game on 48.4 percent shooting from the field and 33.3 percent from deep. 4 Rookie Dylan Harper is looking to be the third straight Spur to win Rookie of the Year. NBAE via Getty Images Advertisement While all three guards are naturally ball-dominant, the 6-foot-6 frames of Harper and Castle should provide flexibility alongside the 6-foot-3 Fox, which is certainly what San Antonio is banking on with Fox's extension. Fox is entering his ninth NBA season and is just one of two players to average 20 points, five assists and a steal in each of the past six seasons, along with Luka Doncic.
