Spurs' Fox (hamstring) says opener in doubt
""I definitely won't be playing in the preseason, that's for sure," Fox said. "I don't think I'll be ready for opening night. But we're going to play it by ear. I feel like I can play right now. But I don't have that [medical] expertise. I'm not going to lie to you: I was running 15 miles per hour already [on a treadmill]. I think that's probably faster than most of the guys that are here. So, when I say I think I'm ready, I for real think I'm ready.""
""[Wembanyama] was a big reason why I wanted to come here," Fox said. "I see the youth and the talent that they have. We know there will be growing pains, but you would love to win while you have growing pains rather than losing and trying to have"
De'Aaron Fox expressed doubt about being available for the Oct. 22 season opener at Dallas after sustaining a right hamstring injury during a summer workout. The Spurs plan to hold Fox out of the preseason and likely the opener as a precaution, though Fox reported feeling capable and noted treadmill work reaching 15 miles per hour. Fox signed a four-year $229 million extension after a 2024-25 campaign that ended early due to left pinky surgery. Fox averaged 19.7 points and 6.8 assists in 17 games and played five games with Victor Wembanyama before Wembanyama's season ended due to deep vein thrombosis.
