This summer, several inner-conference OKC Thunder rivals have been rather busy as they try to bolster their squads to keep up with the defending champs moving forward.
The Spurs are now the latest team to take part in such a pursuit.
Monday, ESPN NBA Insider Shams Charania reported that San Antonio had agreed to extend last season's splashy trade-deadline acquisition, De'Aaron Fox, to a four-year, $229 million max deal, cementing their partnership through at least the 2029-30 season.
Although it may seem counterintuitive, the Spurs' decision to extend a former All-Star still in his prime is an extremely unwise maneuver that has the potential to tremendously benefit the Thunder.
