San Antonio Spurs’ De’Aaron Fox to make hometown debut in Sunday’s game against OKC

Following a three-team trade that sent Spurs reserves Zach Collins and Tre Jones to the Chicago Bulls, new team member De’Aaron Fox makes his hometown debut this Sunday against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

The former All-Star and Clutch Player of the Year is averaging almost 25 points per game this season, becoming the first Spurs guard to hit that scoring mark since Hall of Famer George Gervin.

After a tough stretch that included 12 games away from the Frost Bank Center, the Spurs return home to face league MVP candidate Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and a young Thunder squad that leads the Western Conference standings.

Gilgeous-Alexander led all scorers with 32 points in a 104-110 loss to the Spurs back in November. During that game, Keldon Johnson paced San Antonio with 22 points.

It will take a united front to limit Gilgeous-Alexander this time, starting with Rookie of the Year candidate Stephon Castle on the perimeter and All-Star Victor Wembanyama patrolling the paint.

$42 and up, 6 p.m., Frost Bank Center, 1 Frost Bank Center Drive, (210) 444-5140, frostbankcenter.com, Fanduel Sports Network-Southwest.
