Fox is not worth 229 million in four years? US media questioned the Spurs choice, the former has only played one round of playoffs in 8 years

Spurs star Fox has agreed to sign a four-year, $229 million maximum salary renewal with the team. However, the media questioned Fox for the renewal of the contract between the two parties.

In last season, Fox played a total of 62 games, averaging 36.1 minutes per game, scoring 23.5 points, 4.8 rebounds, 6.3 assists and 1.5 interruptions. Among them, he played 45 games for the Kings, and averaged 37 minutes per game, contributing 25 points, 5 rebounds, 6.1 assists and 1.5 interruptions. After joining the Spurs in a three-party trade, Fox played 17 games, averaging 34 minutes per game, scoring 19.7 points, 4.3 rebounds, 6.8 assists and 1.5 interruptions.

In response to this, American media Legion Hoops posted a message asking: The Spurs finally gave Dalong Fox a four-year maximum salary contract, and they also have Rookie of the Year Stephen Castle and second-round Dylan Harper. Is this really a wise decision?

It should be noted that last season was the 8th season of Fox's career, and so far in his career, Fox has only played in the playoffs once. That is, in the 22-23 season, the Kings ranked third in the West with 48 wins and 34 losses in the regular season, but were defeated by the Warriors in the first round of the playoffs and lost to their opponents in the tiebreak battle. In the series at that time, Fox played 7 games, averaging 38.6 minutes per game, scoring 27.4 points, 5.4 rebounds, 7.7 assists and 2.1 interruptions. In addition, Fox missed the playoffs in all the other seven seasons.

However, former NBA player Shampoo gave support: "I think Fox brought everything needed to the Spurs. If you give him enough fire, Fox is the one who knows how to play with his toys. Since I saw John Wall, I think Fox is the fastest man with the ball. He was like carrying two jets and whizzing like a bowling ball."

Do you think the four-year, 229 million contract issued by the Spurs to Fox is worth it?
