De’Aaron Fox says he expects to play against New York Knicks

After missing Monday night’s game due to left hamstring soreness, Sacramento Kings guard De’Aaron Fox says that he is ready to make his return on Thursday night.

Fox, who says that he is feeling “100 percent” after resting his hamstring, is likely to take the floor on Thursday night when the Kings face the New York Knicks on TNT.

The first-time All-Star is averaging 26.5 points, 6.9 assists, and 1.7 steals per game while shooting 56 percent from the field over his past nine appearances.

"Playoffs… PLAYOFFS?"

Yeah. Playoffs.

The Sacramento Kings are closing in on securing the franchise's first postseason berth in 16 years, and the team's chances of securing home court advantage are very real.
