Fox’s overall usage is essentially the lowest of his career, a shade above his rookie season, but the 28-year-old has been a positive playmaking presence since last season’s trade to the Spurs. “I mean, I’ve got to make shots,” Fox said on Thursday. “Obviously I’m not shooting the ball as much. But coming here, I knew that was the way it was going to be. As a player, you sacrifice for the betterment of the team. There are times where I need to take shots or times where I don’t take as many shots, but at the end of the day, you need to make the shots that you take.”
