While I believe that most of these players have met a lot tough criteria set during rookie contracts and beyond to earn their new contract, De’Aaron Fox was phenomenal with Kings couple of seasons ago, and he made all NBA if I recall correctly, so he might have earned is bag.
My only concern is the extreme disparity between the NBA and WNBA salaries, when basically both of them are supposed to be two sides of the same coin.
I do agree that his stats with the Kings doesn't lie and probably that's the reason he got this contract right now and he got a good start with Spurs although he just played 17 games.
Fox appeared in 17 games for the Spurs in 2024-25, averaging 19.7 points, 6.8 assists and 4.8 rebounds
They could gave WNBA a little percentage tbh with those contracts, it's not really looking good to have them feel that they aren't given enough credits.
