Sacramento Kings guard De'Aaron Fox has avoided a serious right ankle injury but will miss some time, sources told ESPN's Andscape on Monday.
Fox suffered the injury in the fourth quarter of Sunday's overtime victory against the visiting Los Angeles Lakers, and an X-ray revealed a moderate ankle sprain.
The 2023 All-Star is expected to miss Wednesday's game at Golden State, but a source expressed optimism that he can return within a week's time.
Fox is averaging 31.3 points, 6.0 assists and 4.3 rebounds through three games for the Kings this season.
