Fox, 21, was averaging a career-high 18.2 points to go along with seven assists per game in his first nine outings. The Kings' 2017 first-round pick (No 5 overall) out of Kentucky has averaged double-digit scoring since he entered the league, including a 17.3-point mark last season.

The Kings said forward Marvin Bagley III continues to make progress from a right thumb fracture suffered in the season-opener on October 23. He will undergo his six-week evaluation at the end of this week.
