NBA's official injury report 

Fox met with the media on Tuesday and said that he would likely play in the game.

The All-Star point guard has had a sensational series with averages of 31.5 points, 6.0 rebounds, 7.5 assists and 2.5 steals per contest through the first four games. 

The Kings won Games 1 and 2 on their home floor but lost Games 3 and 4 on the road in San Francisco. 

Therefore, the series is tied at 2-2, and the two teams head into a pivotal Game 5 that will give one of them a 3-2 lead. 

At home, the Kings have been good, going 25-18 in the 43 games they have hosted in Sacramento. 

The franchise is in the NBA Playoffs for the first time since 2006 after finishing the regular season as the third seed in the Western Conference with a 48-34 record. 

As for the Warriors, they have struggled in a big way on the road, going just 11-32 in 43 games away from the Chase Center. 

They have won the NBA Championship in four out of the previous eight seasons and are the sixth seed after finishing with a 44-38 record. 

Whoever wins the series will face off against the Los Angeles Lakers or Memphis Grizzlies in the second round.
