De’Aaron Fox’s Wife, Reece Uses One-Word to Highlight Anthony Edwards’ “Underrated” Acknowledgement

A jaw-dropping 60 points by De'Aaron Fox overshadowed every other score, even LeBron James ' fourth consecutive triple-double. However, he still couldn't secure a victory. The 130-126 game may have ended in Minnesota's favor, but it was Fox who stole the show. With Anthony Edwards having no shame in admitting the point guard's brilliance, his wife was gushing with pride.

Ant's unfiltered conversation on the courtside during the postgame interview also included praise for the Kings player. When asked how he felt going up against Fox, the 23-year-old admitted, "I've been a fan of his for a long time. I mean, just watching him, I always felt like he was underrated, underappreciated by everybody." However, Fox certainly made his presence known on Friday night, leaving Edwards and Co. stunned. "He showed us today who he is," Ant added. "To me, he's one of the best point guards in the league, and he showed it, man."

Edwards reflected on how Fox kept scoring on him, despite his best efforts to guard him. And confessed that's what he loves about the game, "the best two players on the floor going at each other, so that was fun," he said. Proud of the compliments, Reece shared the NBA's post featuring Edwards' remarks on her IG story , and wrote "RN" (right now), expressing how she was feeling after Fox's electrifying performance.

The defeat charged up Fox, and he was determined to replicate his masterclass against the Utah Jazz, snatching the eighth victory for his side.

De'Aaron Fox drops back-to-back masterclass for the Kings The Jazz weren't prepared for the super-heroic skills De'Aaron Fox brought to the Golden 1 Center. They believed they had the upper hand over the Kings, given their injury list, which included Domantas Sabonis, DeMar DeRozan , and Malik Monk. However, the 6-foot-3 guard made it clear from the opening quarter that he was going for the win.

And there he was shooting 16-of-30 from the field to crush the Jazz defense. Fox hit his shots from beyond the arc accurately, missing only one, and by the end of the night, he racked up 49 points coupled with 3 rebounds and 9 assists to his name, missing the double-double by an inch.

Following the 36-minute performance, Fox admitted, "I was a little tired coming in today." However, he claimed, "When the game started, I was fine." Fox said. Performing with such intensity on consecutive nights would tire anyone out, but the 26-year-old knew he had to lead the herd in the absence of the other stars. And his efforts earned him praise from the Kings' head coach. "I didn't have to say anything to Fox," Mike Brown said post-game, on ESPN. "He knew ... he had to carry us."

Both Sabonis and DeRozan are listed as day-to-day and are expected to return to the hardwood soon. However, with Fox playing at his best, averaging 28.9 points per game, he can be relied upon to lead the team to the best of his abilities. Fox however, needed just one more point to tie Kobe Bryant's record of 110 points in back-to-back games. So beware Atlanta, don't let Fox drop a 61-point whooping on you.
