They told me Fox was quick but Jesus Christ
It’s so good to have him back. He was the spark that was missing for us.
Wemby is a soft bum
GSG
Finally someone who knows how to throw Wemby a proper goddamn entry pass 😂
Finally , a real point guard 😭😭
Experience over potential, don’t trade this man 🤦🏾♂️💯
🦊👽
D-Wade ish
This is a legitimate all star level guard… Don’t trade him
Sample size of what Fox can do. If Luke comes back then the Spurs cavalry will be charging ahead of schedule.
He still has his speed! Man the Spurs has so many guards it’s insane!
Fox made Peavy look stupid🤦
Spurs overpowered with 🦊
I wonder how different Fox’s career would look if the Lakers drafted him at #2 instead of Lonzo Ball.
The people saying trade this dude are the same ones that say Sochan, Johnson and Vassell should stay LOL
We finally have a PG that could offensively hold teams accountable if they double team Wemby
This is what the spurs really needed, a bucket getter on the clutch, a clutch player of the year. The only downside is it might hinder the development of harper which is playing really good basketball, hope they make this work.
C'mon Fox. You were supposed to resume the PG position and get Castle going. Castle played more 1 than he did, and had all the assists.
The acquisition of De’Aaron Fox is very great for Wemby. Scary hours are coming for the league ‼️
My dream to see fox and curry .🫂
The 🦊 is back 🔥
Hindi aq batangas buraoot
I think the Spurs did the smart thing. With Fox on the team it's going to be very hard for Castle and Harper to qualify for the supermax rookie extinction. Thus they have a player that can help them win now and keep Harper and Castle contacts reasonable in few years time.
Spurs fans ungrateful talking about trade him him before his 1st game! Still a top 10 PG easy
Keep fox+harper. Trade Castle.
ok boy
Bruh i forgot how good he is. He’s the pg they needed to control the game and keep the pace where they want it
Honestly it's not his speed that kills it's his change of speed that kills 😭
The "double team Wemby" time is over folks
0:25 is crazy and thats not even full speed
Imagine Fox and Wemby in the Playoffs? Deym.
Welcome back Fox and stay healthy
free from sacramento
😮Spurs have a mix of boring and excitement. Theyre playing like an actual team this year. You cant double team wemby and leave Fox by himself
Fox will be the closer
Spurs = Talent and youth. Pop accomplished his mission and passed the torch. It’s up to Mitch and his staff to finally deliver hardware at the end of this or next season.
The pelicans have some great young talent. Should start the rebuild now. Trade the older players.
Trade him?? Yall are INSANE!! The Spurs haven’t won anything so why TF would you intentionally start depleting a group that has potential but hasn’t won yet.D Fox firmly places them neck and neck with the Thunder in the west
