De’Aaron Fox
Grade: A
De’Aaron Fox is considered to be one of the most talented freshman point guards in the country. This season, Fox has accumulated averages of 15.4 PPG, 4.2 RPG, and 5.2 APG. The Houston, Texas native has 145 total assists on the year which leads the SEC. His 5.2 assists per game is also a conference best.
Fox is the proud owner of the second triple-double in Kentucky Basketball history. In a performance against Arizona State, in the Bahamas, Fox finished with 14 points, 10 assists, and 11 rebounds.
De’Aaron Fox is one of the keys to the Wildcats coming up big in March. John Calipari will need him to step up and be the floor general.
