圣安东尼奥马刺队的4号球员德阿隆·福克斯 (De’Aaron Fox) 在2025年12月3日于佛罗里达州奥兰多的起亚中心进行的比赛第二节中，迎着奥兰多魔术队34号温德尔·卡特二世 (Wendell Carter Jr.) 的防守起跳投篮。
在周六不敌犹他队的比赛中，马刺队缺少了他们的控球后卫德阿隆·福克斯，后者因左内收肌紧张而休战。
主教练米奇·约翰逊 (Mitch Johnson) 乐观地表示，这次伤病只会让这位队内二号得分手休战很短一段时间。
“问题不大，”约翰逊在谈到福克斯的伤病时说道。“显然他现在无法上场，所以伤病是确实存在的。但我们希望这只是短期的。”
在福克斯缺阵、对阵爵士队的比赛中，朱利安·尚佩尼 (Julian Champagnie) 顶替首发，但这并不足以让这位四年级前锋摆脱投篮低谷。
尚佩尼全场投篮10中2，得到4分，并且6次三分出手全部偏出。
当有外线球员受伤时，24岁的尚佩尼一直是约翰逊的首选顶替首发人选。本赛季，他已在这种情况下首发出战了18场比赛。
“在首发和替补之间来回切换，这真的很难，”约翰逊说。“他是我们阵中的一块万能拼图，能融入多种阵容搭配，所以他才被选中来承担这个角色。”
在首发球员受伤的情况下，约翰逊——就像他的前任格雷格·波波维奇 (Gregg Popovich) 一样——会有意识地尽可能保持替补阵容角色的完整性。
这也是约翰逊选择让尚佩尼而非新秀红人迪伦·哈珀 (Dylan Harper) 对阵爵士队时首发的原因。
“让球员们能预知自己是否上场、何时上场、何时被换下，这一点至关重要，”约翰逊说。“他们是习惯的生物，从一早醒来到晚上睡觉都遵循着固定的节奏。我认为，在力所能及的范围内帮助球队保持稳定性是至关重要的。你不能只是随便把人扔到场上，尤其对于我们这样一支还缺乏连续性和磨合时间的球队而言。”

How long will the Spurs be without De’Aaron Fox?
De’Aaron Fox #4 of the San Antonio Spurs goes up for a shot against Wendell Carter Jr. #34 of the Orlando Magic during the second quarter at Kia Center on December 03, 2025 in Orlando, Florida.
The Spurs played Saturday’s loss against Utah without point guard De’Aaron Fox, who was sidelined with left adductor tightness.
Coach Mitch Johnson was optimistic the injury would keep the team’s second-leading scorer sidelined for only a short amount of time.
“Not too many big concerns,” Johnson said of Fox’s ailment. “Obviously he’s out, so it’s real. But hopefully it will be short term.”
Julian Champagnie made a spot start in Fox’s absence against the Jazz, but it wasn’t enough to shake the fourth-year forward out of a shooting slump.
Champagnie ended with four points on 2-of-10 shooting and missed all six of his 3-point tries.
The 24-year-old Champagnie has been Johnson’s first choice for fill-in starter when a perimeter player in injured. He has made 18 starts this season under those circumstances.
“It’s really hard, jumping from starting to the bench and back and forth,” Johnson said. “He is a versatile piece for us that fits with a lot of lineups, so that’s why he’s been chosen to do that.”
In the event of an injury to a starter, Johnson — like his predecessor, Gregg Popovich — has been cognizant of keeping bench roles as intact as possible.
It is a reason Johnson opted to start Champagnie against the Jazz instead of rookie sensation Dylan Harper.
“It goes a long way for players to expect if they’re going to play, when they’re going to play, when do they come out,” Johnson said. “They are creatures of habit from when they wake up to when they go to bed. I think being able to help provide consistency where you can (is important). You don’t want to just throwing people in there, especially with a team that hasn’t had a lot of continuity and time together.”
