De'Aaron Fox injury status vs. Jazz
Fox was initially in serious danger of missing Saturday's matchup against Utah. This is after the All-Star point guard was listed as questionable to play due to a sore right hamstring. It does not sound overly concerning, but this knock has been deemed serious enough for Fox to spend at least one game on the sidelines. This is after the Kings star was ruled out of Saturday's game just before tipoff.
The good news for the Kings is that there are no other players listed on the injury report from Saturday's game apart from Fox. Now that the 25-year-old is not going to be able to suit up, we should expect a big game from Domantas Sabonis, who has been tearing it up for Sacramento for pretty much the entire season.
The Jazz, on the other hand, are also dealing with a slew of injuries. Lauri Markkanen, Jordan Clarkson, Collin Sexton, and Rudy Gay are all listed as out against the Kings, so it's obviously going to be an uphill battle for Utah on Saturday regardless of Fox's absence.
Now, with regard to the question of Is De'Aaron Fox playing tonight vs. the Jazz, the answer is no.
