16 May
Summary
- De'Aaron Fox exited Friday's Game 6 in the second quarter.
- He scored 13 points before leaving the game due to an ankle issue.
- His departure raises concerns, with Harper potentially seeing more play.
De'Aaron Fox, a key player for the Kings, was forced to leave Game 6 of the Western Conference Semifinals on Friday. He exited the court in the second quarter against the Minnesota Timberwolves, heading to the locker room with an apparent ankle issue.
Prior to his departure, Fox had a strong performance, contributing 13 points, two rebounds, four assists, and one block. His exit occurred with just over a minute remaining in the second quarter, and he was observed limping. Given his recent battle with an ankle injury, this withdrawal may be a precautionary measure by the team.
The situation is being closely monitored as the game progresses into the second half. Should Fox be unable to return, his absence would likely lead to increased minutes for teammate Dylan Harper, impacting the team's strategy and performance in the critical playoff matchup.
