A disappointing showing from veteran guard De'Aaron Fox was coupled with the
emergence of rookie sensation Dylan Harper during the San Antonio Spurs' NBA
Finals loss to the New York Knicks, but it doesn't sound like the team will
be making any changes to its backcourt anytime soon.
Reporting from the NBA's Summer League in Las Vegas, The Athletic's **Jared
Weiss** revealed that "multiple team and league sources said the Spurs still
see Fox as a critical part of the team's future." The two-time All-Star has
the experience advantage over Harper and 2025 NBA Rookie of the Year Stephon
Castle.
在聖安東尼奧馬刺於 NBA 總冠軍賽不敵紐約尼克的系列賽中，資深後衛德阿隆・福克斯
（De’Aaron Fox）的表現令人失望，與此同時，備受矚目的新秀狄倫・哈珀（Dylan
Harper）則強勢崛起。
不過，聽起來馬刺短期內並不打算對後場陣容做出任何調整。
《The Athletic》的傑瑞德・韋斯（Jared Weiss）在拉斯維加斯 NBA 夏季聯賽現場報導
指出：「多名球隊與聯盟消息人士表示，馬刺仍將福克斯視為球隊未來的關鍵一員。」
相較於哈珀及 2025 年度 NBA 最佳新秀史蒂芬・卡索（Stephon Castle），這位兩屆全明
星球員在經驗方面占有優勢。
"Harper has expressed a willingness to be patient and accept a sixth man role
again next season as he continues to get a feel for how to run an offense
full-time, according to sources familiar with his thinking who spoke on the
condition of anonymity to describe team dynamics," Weiss stated.
"Though Fox struggled mightily to finish the postseason, he still has a significant
advantage over Castle and Harper in his ability to consistently read the
tempo of the game and organize the offense to create good looks beyond the
first action. Those skills make Fox vital to the team as the two younger
guards build those skills."
Fox averaged just 12.8 points and 6.0 assists while shooting a measly 34.3
percent from the field and 25.0 percent from beyond the arc during the NBA
Finals as the Spurs lost to the Knicks in five games. Meanwhile, Harper
excelled off the bench with averages of 18.0 points, 6.4 rebounds and 3.0
assists.
「據熟悉哈珀想法的消息人士透露，哈珀願意保持耐心，在下個賽季繼續接受第六人的角
色，同時逐步學習如何全職掌控球隊進攻。這些人士因談及球隊內部動態而要求匿名，」
韋斯寫道。
「儘管福克斯在季後賽尾聲表現極為低迷，但在持續判讀比賽節奏、梳理進攻
，以及第一波戰術未能奏效後繼續創造良好出手機會等方面，他仍明顯優於卡索和哈珀。
正當兩名年輕後衛培養這些能力時，福克斯的上述本領使他對球隊依然至關重要。」
在馬刺以 1 比 4 不敵尼克的 NBA 總冠軍賽中，福克斯場均僅得到 12.8 分和 6.0 次助
攻，投籃命中率低至 34.3％，三分球命中率也只有 25.0％。相較之下，哈珀以替補身分
交出亮眼表現，場均貢獻 18.0 分、6.4 個籃板與 3.0 次助攻。
To add to San Antonio's dilemma even further, Fox is entering the first year
of his four-year, $229 million maximum contract extension, making him an
unlikely trade candidate. The Spurs seem to have no choice but to try to make
it work with their three guards.
更讓聖安東尼奧陷入兩難的是，福克斯即將開始履行一份為期四年、總值 2.29 億美元的
頂薪延長合約，因此他不太可能成為交易人選。馬刺似乎別無選擇，只能設法讓這三名後
衛共存並發揮作用。
"There is also an understanding, according to those sources, that Fox is not
tradeable on his contract at the moment, and rehabbing his value with a good
playoff performance next season will be crucial to an inevitable backcourt
succession plan," Weiss stated. "Castle is locked in as a starter, and though
the three guards closed games together on occasion, it's unlikely the Spurs
would start all of them unless one of them becomes a knockdown shooter."
「據這些消息人士指出，球隊內部也明白，以福克斯目前的合約而言，現階段幾乎無法將
他交易出去；因此，他若能在下個賽季的季後賽打出好表現、重新提升自身交易價值，將
是球隊日後無可避免地推動後場世代交替計畫的關鍵，」韋斯寫道。
「卡索已確定占據一個先發席位。雖然這三名後衛偶爾會一起打完比賽，但除非其中一人
蛻變成極具威脅的頂尖射手，否則馬刺不太可能讓三人同時先發。」

老實說他現在就也只有第六人實力三分產效拉起來前沒資格去先發
