Since his last Stockwatch early in the 2018-19 season, Fox has steadily taken his game to another level each of the last two seasons with the Kings. In 2019-20, across 51 games he upped his shooting percentages (with exception of from 3, where he was down from 37% in 2018-19 to just 29%) 48% FG and 56% TS, while increasing his 3P Attempt (.227) and FT Attempt (.420) rates to much better and more promising numbers. This year, his 3P% is back up to 35%, he's still maintaining near 50% FG while posting the second season in a row of a minimum 21 PPG/6.5 APG/3.3 RPG/1.3 SPG line in about 32 MPG. His assist percentage each of the last two seasons has not dropped below 33%, and he's been a net positive for the Kings with respect to WS, WS/48, and BPM across these last two seasons. What's also clear in watching Kings games and listening to post-game interviews is that Fox is the unquestioned engine and leader of this franchise, and he's embraced that mantle. While those things aren't measured in our ratings, Fox has definitively punched above his current 81 rating for a while now and is due for an increase.
Fox's stats since his last SW (including the remainder of his 2018-19, 2019-20, and 2020-21) to illustrate his growth over the last 123 games:
2018-19 (post-Dec 2018 SW) (51 games): 17 PPG/7.3 APG/3.9 RPG/2 SPG on 45/35/65 shooting splits
2019-20 (51 games): 21.1 PPG/6.8 APG/3.8 RPG/1.5 SPG on 48/29/70 shooting splits with a 20.6 PER, 56% TS, 4.0 WS, .118 WS/48, and a 1.8 BPM in 32 MPG
2020-21 (21 games): 22.3 PPG/6.6 APG/3.3 RPG/1.3 SPG on 48/35/70 shooting splits and is currently sporting a 19.5 PER, 57% TS, 1.1 WS, .076 WS/48, and a 0.6 BPM
Current rating: 81
Proposed rating: 85
