Former NBA player Charles Barkley says the Spurs should bench point guard De’Aaron Fox following a difficult start in Game 5 of the NBA Finals. Both outlets report that Fox drew criticism after Game 4, and that the situation carries into Game 5 with another rough performance at the beginning of the game. The reports highlight Barkley’s call for a change in the Spurs’ lineup, framing it as a reaction to Fox’s early impact during the contest rather than a broader discussion of his overall season or career. The articles do not provide additional details beyond the general description of Fox’s struggles and Barkley’s suggestion, and they present the remarks as part of ongoing commentary around the Finals matchup. No information is included about whether Spurs coaches or players respond to Barkley’s comments, or whether any benching decision is made. The coverage focuses on Barkley’s specific stance after the early portion of Game 5 and reiterates that the criticism follows a similarly contentious Game 4.
