Klutch Sports 首席执行官里奇·保罗 (Rich Paul) 于周一向 ESPN 透露,圣安东尼奥马刺队球星德阿隆·福克斯 (De’Aaron Fox) 已同意与球队达成一份为期四年、总价值2.29亿美元的顶薪续约合同。
这份顶薪合同的最后一年不含球员选项,将确保福克斯为圣安东尼奥效力至2029-30赛季。此前,在交易截止日的一笔运作中,这位曾一次入选全明星、一次入选NBA最佳阵容的后卫从萨克拉门托国王队被交易至马刺队。
今年二月,福克斯和保罗成功运作了一笔交易,将他送往其心仪的目的地圣安东尼奥,并在数月后锁定了这份长期续约合同——与加利福尼亚州不同,德克萨斯州没有州所得税。
在球队发布的一份声明中,福克斯表示,他渴望为马刺队的冠军传统添砖加瓦。
福克斯说道:“能成为这样一支球队的一员……你一来到这里就能感受到。你能从这里的氛围中感受到,从球迷身上感受到。然后当你走进训练馆或是球馆,看到那些悬挂的冠军旗帜时……你唯一能做的,就是努力为这份荣耀添砖加瓦。”
马刺队在六月的NBA选秀中用2号签选中了后卫迪伦·哈珀 (Dylan Harper),现在他们拥有了由福克斯、哈珀和斯蒂芬·卡斯尔 (Stephon Castle) 组成的年轻且天赋异禀的后场组合。
福克斯和维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 上赛季仅并肩作战了五场比赛,但两人已建立起亲密的关系,并准备在未来几年共同引领马刺队的核心阵容。队中不仅拥有文班亚马和卡斯尔这两位接连当选的年度最佳新秀,还有新加入的哈珀。
上赛季为马刺出战的17场比赛中,福克斯场均贡献19.7分和6.8次助攻。他于3月18日接受了修复左手小指肌腱损伤的手术,并因此赛季报销。实际上,自从去年十月在训练营遭遇这次肌腱损伤后,他整个赛季都带伤作战。
福克斯说:“接下来不同的是,球迷们将会看到我用十根健全的手指打球了。”
在为马刺和国王队总共出战的62场比赛中,福克斯场均得到23.5分、6.3次助攻和4.8个篮板。他曾在11月15日对阵明尼苏达森林狼队的比赛中轰下60分——这也创造了国王队的队史得分纪录。尼古拉·约基奇 (Nikola Jokic) 是上赛季联盟中唯一一位也曾单场得到60分的球员。
福克斯是过去六个赛季中,唯二每个赛季都能场均贡献至少20分、5次助攻和1次抢断的球员之一,另一位是卢卡·东契奇 (Luka Doncic)。同时,自2017-18赛季进入NBA以来,他也是仅有的四位生涯总数据达到10000分、3000次助攻和700次抢断的球员之一,其他三位是詹姆斯·哈登 (James Harden)、拉塞尔·威斯布鲁克 (Russell Westbrook) 和约基奇。

Spurs, De’Aaron Fox reach 4-year, $229M max extension, agent says
San Antonio Spurs star De’Aaron Fox agreed to a four-year, $229 million maximum contract extension with the franchise, Klutch Sports CEO Rich Paul told ESPN on Monday.
The max deal has no player option in the final year and secures Fox’s future in San Antonio through the 2029-30 season, after a trade deadline deal moved the one-time All-Star and one-time All-NBA guard from the Sacramento Kings to the Spurs.
Fox and Paul were able to navigate a trade to his preferred destination of San Antonio in February and then secure this long-term extension months later – in a state with no income tax compared to California.
Fox, in remarks distributed by the team, said he was driven to add to the Spurs’ championship legacy.
“Just being able to be part of an organization like this … you come in here and you feel that. You feel that in the environment. You feel that in the fans,” Fox said. “And then you go into the practice facility or you go into the arena and you see those banners hanging … there’s nothing you can do besides try to build on that.”
The Spurs drafted guard Dylan Harper with the No. 2 pick in June’s NBA draft and now have a young, talented backcourt of Fox, Harper and Stephon Castle.
Fox and Victor Wembanyama, who played only five games together last season, have developed a close relationship and are set to lead the Spurs’ core for years to come, with back-to-back Rookie of the Year award winners in Wembanyama and Castle, and the arrival of Harper.
Fox, who averaged 19.7 points and 6.8 assists in 17 games with the Spurs last season, had season-ending surgery on March 18 to repair tendon damage in his left pinkie. He played through the ailment all season after suffering the tendon damage during training camp in October.
“What’ll be different going forward is fans will see me play with 10 fingers,” Fox said.
In 62 games for the Spurs and Kings, Fox averaged 23.5 points, 6.3 assists and 4.8 rebounds. He posted a 60-point game on Nov. 15 against the Minnesota Timberwolves – which set the Kings’ franchise record. Nikola Jokic was the only other NBA player with a 60-point game last season.
Fox is only one of two players to average 20 points, 5 assists and 1 steal in each of the past six seasons, along with Luka Doncic, and he is only one of four players with 10,000 points, 3,000 assists and 700 steals since entering the NBA in 2017-18, along with James Harden, Russell Westbrook and Jokic.
