De’Aaron Fox went through a non-contact practice on Tuesday and is planning to play in Game 5 against the Golden State Warriors despite a fractured index finger on his shooting hand.
“No ifs, ands or buts. I’m playing,” said Fox following the practice.
Fox was seen wearing a splint on his finger during practice.
“For me right now, it’s just tolerance of the pad on my finger, making sure I can shoot the ball,” said Fox, who added he has no issues with dribbling or passing.
Mike Brown said it would be a joint decision whether Fox will play in Wednesday’s game. Fox was upgraded from doubtful to questionable on Tuesday.
