Kings' De'Aaron Fox (finger) plans to play G5 vs. Warriors

Sacramento Kings star guard De'Aaron Fox says he is planning to play Game 5 against the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday despite a fractured index finger on his shooting hand.

Fox participated in a non-contact practice on Tuesday and told reporters afterward there's "no ifs, ands or buts. I'm playing."

Fox suffered the injury, which the team has called an avulsion fracture, late in Sunday's Game 4 loss to the Warriors. He was seen shooting with a splint on the injured finger in Tuesday's practice.

"For me right now, it's just tolerance of the pad on my finger, making sure I can shoot the ball," Fox said.
