以下翻譯有請Gemini幫忙初翻，有稍微看過 *** How De'Aaron Fox hit his most important goal in his season debut De'Aaron Fox如何在賽季首秀中達成他最重要的目標 The Spurs' All-Star guard picked up where he left off in his first game in eight months 這位馬刺隊全明星後衛在闊別八個月的首場比賽中，延續了之前的出色表現。 CHICAGO – After watching the Spurs get off to one of the best starts in franchise history without him, De’Aaron Fox headed into his season debut Saturday against New Orleans with one primary goal in mind. 在看到馬刺隊在他缺席的情況下，取得了隊史上最佳的開局之一後， De’Aaron Fox在週六對陣新奧爾良鵜鶘隊的賽季首秀中，心裡只有一個主要目標： Just don’t screw it up. 就是別搞砸了。 “I don’t want to break their rhythm, because I feel like we’ve played well, ” the All-Star guard said. “So for me it was just go out there and try to help the team keep winning.” 「我不想破壞他們的節奏，因為我覺得我們打得很好，」這位全明星後衛說。「所以對我 來說，就是上場去，試著幫助球隊保持勝利。」 With that as the barometer, Fox’s long-awaited return to the Spurs’ lineup was an unmitigated success. 以這個為衡量標準，Fox期待已久的歸隊取得了完全的成功。 Playing in his first NBA game since March 12, Fox spearheaded a 126-119 victory over the Pelicans by scoring a team-high 24 points, including a game-sealing floater with 29.4 seconds remaining. 這是他自 3 月 12 日以來打的第一場 NBA 比賽，Fox以全隊最高的 24 分帶領馬刺隊以 126-119 戰勝鵜鶘隊，其中包括在比賽剩下 29.4 秒時投進了鎖定勝局的拋投。 “It was Fox being Fox,” guard Devin Vassell said. “It looked like he didn’ t miss a beat.” 「這就是Fox在做Fox會做的事，」後衛Devin Vassell說。「看起來他一點都沒有生疏。 」 Fox and the Spurs (7-2) will hope the winning beat goes on as they travel to Chicago for Monday’s game against the upstart Bulls at the United Center. Fox和馬刺隊（7 勝 2 負）希望勝利的節奏能夠延續下去，他們將前往芝加哥，參加週一 對陣勢頭正盛的公牛隊的比賽。 It has been an eventful eight months for Fox, who the Spurs obtained in a blockbuster swap with Sacramento at last season’s February trade deadline. 對於Fox來說，這是波折不斷的八個月。馬刺隊是在上賽季二月交易截止日前，通過一筆 重磅交易從沙加緬度換來了他的。 The 27-year-old played 17 games with the Spurs before being shut down in March to undergo the first surgery of his life – a procedure to repair a damaged ligament in the pinkie finger of his left (shooting) hand. 這位 27 歲的球員在馬刺隊打了 17 場比賽後，於三月份被停賽，接受了人生中的第一次 手術——修復他左手（投籃手）小指受損的韌帶。 Having successfully recovered from that, Fox strained his right hamstring during an offseason workout in August. That injury is the one that nudged Fox ’s season debut into November. 在成功從那次手術中康復後，Fox又在八月份的一次休賽期訓練中拉傷了右腿筋。正是這 次受傷，讓Fox的賽季首秀被推遲到了十一月。 In between, Fox signed a Spurs-record four-year, $229-million contract extension to lock himself in as Victor Wembanyama’s running mate for the near future. 在這段期間，Fox簽下了一份馬刺隊史紀錄的四年、價值 2.29 億美元的續約合同，將自 己鎖定為Victor Wembanyama在不久的將來會攜手合作的搭檔。 Upon learning his hamstring diagnoses would likely postpone the start of his second season in San Antonio, Fox was close to distraught. 當得知他的腿筋診斷結果可能會推遲他在聖安東尼奧的第二個賽季開局時，Fox感到幾乎 崩潰。 “I didn't cry,” said Fox, who had never had a hamstring issue before. “But I definitely broke down. Like wow, I just got here. I just had surgery on my hand and then this happens.” 「我沒有哭，」Fox說，他以前從未有過腿筋問題。「但我確實崩潰了。就像天啊，我才 剛到這裡。我的手才剛動完手術，然後又發生了這種事。」 The rehab process was rigorous. Fox eschewed a vacation and pulled out of a promotional trip to China for his shoe brand to work on recovery. 康復過程是嚴格的。Fox推掉了假期，並退出了他球鞋品牌的中國宣傳活動，專心於恢復 。 “I didn’t miss a day,” Fox said. 「我一天都沒缺席，」Fox說。 The waiting was hard on Fox. 等待對Fox來說很艱難。 He arrived for the start of training camp convinced he was healthy and clamoring to play. Before the first practice, the Spurs athletic performance staff clocked Fox at 15 mph on a sprint. 訓練營開始時，他堅信自己已經健康，並渴望上場。在第一次訓練前，馬刺隊團隊人員測 得Fox的衝刺速度達到了 15 英里/小時。 Still, the medical staff barred him from fully participating in practices or games when the preseason began. 儘管如此，當季前賽開始時，醫療團隊禁止他完全參與訓練或比賽。 Fighting impatience, Fox understood and even appreciated the Spurs’ caution with him. 克服不耐煩，Fox理解甚至感謝馬刺隊對他需要時間復健的謹慎態度。 “As a competitor, obviously I wanted to get out there but I’m listening to them,” Fox said. “They have the best interest for me. I signed a contract to be here long term, so they want to protect the asset and make sure the asset is ready when I'm out there.” 「作為一個競爭者，我當然想上場，但我在聽從他們的安排，」Fox說。「他們是為了我 最大的利益著想。我簽了一份長期合同在這裡，所以他們想保護這項資產，並確保這項資 產準備就緒後再上場。」 It was only two weeks ago that Fox resumed playing in full-court 5-on-5 scrimmages for the first time since March. 就在兩週前，Fox才首次恢復進行全場 5 對 5 的對抗訓練，這是自三月以來頭一遭。 Given that layoff, Fox eased his way into things against the Pelicans, going scoreless in the first quarter while attempting only two shots in 7 ½ minutes. 鑑於這麼長時間的休戰，Fox在對陣鵜鶘隊時是慢慢熱機。他在第一節沒有得分，在 7 分 半鐘內只嘗試了兩次投籃。 Then, the second quarter began and Fox became Fox again. 隨後，第二節開始了，Fox又變回了那個Fox。 Fox poured in 15 points in the frame, including 13 in a row at one point. 他在該節灌進了 15 分，其中一度連得 13 分。 “He just got rolling and he got rolling fast,” Vassell said. “I mean it went from, ‘Is he going to make one?’ and next thing you know it’s pow, pow, pow.” 「他就是一下子找到感覺了，而且找得很快，」Vassell說。「我的意思是，一開始大家 還在想，『他會投進嗎？』然後下一刻就變成了一連串的得分，砰、砰、砰。」 Fox acknowledges he began the day with rust to shake off. Even so, he was not shocked by his second-quarter surge. Fox承認，他開始比賽時確實需要甩掉一些生疏感。即便如此，他對自己在第二節的爆發 並不感到震驚。 “I'm good at basketball,” Fox said with a grin, “so you can still have rust and be able to do that.” Fox笑著說：「我籃球打得很好，所以你即使有些生疏，也還是能做到那樣。」 Fox’s third basket of the game came when he took an inbounds pass at one end of the floor, raced 70 feet through all five Pelicans players and completed a short jumper in the paint. Fox在比賽中的第三個進球，是他從場地的一端接過界外球，狂奔了 70 呎，穿過所有五 名鵜鶘隊球員，並在禁區內完成了一個短距離跳投。 That was the moment Fox’s teammates knew the fastest player in the NBA was all the way back. 就在那一刻，Fox的隊友們知道這位NBA 速度最快的球員已經完全回歸了。 “We’ve definitely seen something like that before,” said forward Harrison Barnes, who played six seasons alongside Fox in Sacramento before rejoining forces with the Spurs. 「我們以前絕對看過這種場面，」前鋒Harrison Barnes說。他曾在沙加緬度與福克斯並 肩作戰六個賽季，之後在馬刺隊重聚。 With the game in the balance late in the fourth, Fox struck again. 在第四節比賽勝負未定時，Fox再次發威。 A one-time NBA Clutch Player of the Year, Fox slipped by New Orleans rookie Jeremiah Fears for a short leaner that gave the Spurs a five-point edge with a little less than 30 seconds to play. 這位曾獲得過關鍵球員獎（Clutch Player of the Year）的球員，溜過新奧爾良新秀 Jeremiah Fears，投進了一個短距離後仰跳投，幫助馬刺隊在比賽剩下不到 30 秒時取得 了五分的領先優勢。 “He's dynamic,” Spurs coach Mitch Johnson said. “He's done it plenty of times in his career. It's good to have him back on the court and hopefully we can just continue to build.” 「他充滿活力，」馬刺隊教練Mitch Johnson說。「他在職業生涯中已經做過很多次了。 很高興他能回到場上，希望我們能繼續進步。」 There will be wrinkles to iron out to be sure. 當然，仍有一些地方需要磨合。 Saturday’s game was only the sixth Fox has played with Wembanyama. It was the first time he shared the starting lineup with backcourt mate Stephon Castle, a partnership that will be equally interesting to monitor going forward. 週六的比賽只是Fox與Wembanyama第六次並肩作戰。這是他第一次和後場tephon Castle一 同先發，這對組合的合作關係也將是未來值得關注的焦點。 Castle equaled a career high with 14 assists Saturday. Meanwhile, 22 of Fox’ s 24 points came with Castle off the floor. Castle週六送出了平職業生涯紀錄的 14 次助攻。與此同時，Fox的 24 分中有 22 分是 在Castle下場休息時得到的。 Despite the rust, despite the kinks, Fox accomplished his predominant goal in his season debut. 儘管有些生疏，儘管還有一些問題需要解決，Fox仍然在他的賽季首秀中達成了他最主要 、最重要的目標。 He didn’t screw anything up. 他沒有搞砸任何事情。 The Spurs are looking forward to more of Fox not screwing things up to come. 馬刺隊期待著Fox未來能持續「不搞砸」的表現。 “We've been waiting for Fox to get back really all summer,” Castle said. “ It’s only going to help us from here.” 「整個夏天我們都在等Fox回來，」Castle說。「從現在開始，這只會對我們更有幫助。 」 Nov 9, 2025 Jeff McDonald SPURS WRITER --
