De’Aaron Fox Doubtful for Kings’ Next Game Against Celtics with Glute Injury
De’Aaron Fox is dealing with a right glute contusion. The Sacramento Kings’ point guard is unlikely to play in their next game against the Boston Celtics on January 10th, 2025. This injury has kept him off the court recently, and his status remains doubtful.
What It Means
Fox’s absence could impact the Kings significantly. He is averaging 26.7 points per game this season, which is the highest on his team. His shooting percentage stands at 48.6%, and he also contributes an average of 6.2 assists per game.
The Kings will need to rely on other players to fill the gap left by Fox. Jordan McLaughlin and Devin Carter are next in line at the point guard position, but they have much lower scoring averages. McLaughlin averages just 2 points per game, while Carter provides an average of 6.5 points per game.
