What a surprise! He is expected to sign the biggest contract in Spurs history! Scoring 60 points and 49 points in back-to-back games.

In early February this year, Fox was traded to the Spurs from the Kings in a three-way deal, and now the six-month freeze period has ended.Thus, he is eligible to sign a four-year maximum extension contract worth $229 million starting today.

If Fox signs the four-year $229 million deal, it would be the largest contract in Spurs history and make him the first player in Spurs history to reach the $200 million mark.

However, according to reporter Siegel, NBA insiders believe that Fox will sign a contract below the maximum with the Spurs. Reporter Ary also revealed that negotiations for an extension between the Spurs and Fox have not yet begun and will not start in the short term.

In the 24-25 season, Fox played 17 games for the Spurs, averaging 34 minutes on the court, contributing 19.7 points, 4.3 rebounds, 6.8 assists, and 1.5 steals, failing to produce the explosive numbers he had with the Kings. In the same 24-25 season, Fox played 45 games for the Kings, averaging 25 points, 5 rebounds, 6.1 assists, and 1.5 steals, including scoring 60 and 49 points in back-to-back games.

In March this year, Fox underwent surgery to repair the tendon in his left pinky finger, which ended his season. Recently, he also suffered a muscle strain, and his injury issues seem to be becoming a significant concern.

Moreover, the current backcourt for the Spurs includes not only Fox but also last season's Rookie of the Year, Castle, and this year's second overall pick, Harper. Reporter Stein has expressed doubts about the Spurs' willingness to offer Fox a maximum contract.

If Fox does not sign an extension with the Spurs this summer, the 25-26 season will be his contract year, and he will have three options as follows:

1. Extend the contract next summer;

2. Be traded at the trade deadline next year;

3. Leave as a completely free agent next summer.

At just 27 years old, Fox is in the prime of his basketball career. If he chooses to leave the Spurs, many teams will likely be willing to offer this All-Star guard a maximum contract next summer. Let's wait and see!
