$229,000,000 4-year deal agreed to by De’Aaron Fox with the San Antonio Spurs. Another crazy deal to a player who has never won anything. He’s a great player, but I don’t even think he’s an all star. Making over $50,000,000 per year as an NBA player when most people in the country have no idea who you are is crazy…
Yeah they definitely overpaid on this one. I don't understand why they would give him such a deal. Sure they don't want him to leave for nothing but I doubt other teams would have been willing to pay this much as well, very strange. While of course Fox is a more than just solid player, as you say he is not even all star material, won nothing and overall isn't even close to being a franchise player (that would warrant such a payday). NBA these days....
I disagree with your statement. Last year, Fox averaged 23.5 points. He also has a very good assist average of 6.3. He's a great contributor to his team and a true team player. I think San Antonio made the smartest decision by signing him. Fox was one of the team's most important players. It's important to remember that the number of All-Stars is very small, and not every player will make it there.
