San Antonio Spurs weigh De'Aaron Fox trade amid offseason roster plans

The San Antonio Spurs are evaluating options to move point guard De'Aaron Fox as his four‑year, max‑salary contract begins. Analysts note his sub‑par showing in the NBA Finals, where he averaged 13 points on 34% shooting, and the emergence of younger backs Dylan Harper and Stephon Castle. While some insiders suggest a trade could “rip off the bandage,” the front office publicly affirms Fox as the starter and a calming presence. The team also eyes adding front‑court depth, including a stretch four, and is in talks to re‑sign forward Harrison Barnes. Concurrently, the city seeks additional private financing for the Spurs’ $1.3 billion arena project.
