De’Aaron Fox has made a big announcement regarding his status for Game 5.
Fox told reporters on Tuesday that he will be playing in Game 5 of his Sacramento Kings’ Western Conference first-round playoff series against the Golden State Warriors. Fox will be playing through a fracture at the tip of his left index finger that was suffered in Game 4 on Sunday.
The Kings guard gave a very determined response regarding his status.
“There’s no if, ands or buts … I’m playing,” Fox said.
Fox was able to do some shooting despite having a splint on his left index finger.
Here is a look at the splint:
And here are some videos of him shooting with the splint on.
Fox’s Kings won the first two games of the series at home but then lost the next two in San Francisco. Now they will be hosting Game 5 on Wednesday at Golden 1 Center.
