Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas is ready for an expanded role this season after the team traded Mikal Bridges to the Knicks. "I'm not really worried about it," said Thomas when asked about the pressures of becoming a leader for the Nets. "I'm just excited to get it going and to try to do it in the league. I'm not really worried about it at all; I'm just ready." The 22-year-old averaged 22.5 points in 2023-24, easily the highest of his career. Fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised to see Thomas enter the All-Star conversation during the 2024-25 campaign, although he'll need to stay healthy, with the 2021 No. 27 overall pick appearing in just 66 games last season.
Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Cam Thomas (back) will be back on the court Wednesday versus Washington. He was initially regarded as questionable for the game after Thomas was a late scratch for Monday's meeting with Toronto. Thomas has had a great campaign, leading his team with 21.5 points per game, and he should be in full flow on Wednesday in a pace-up spot against one of the worst defensive teams in the league. Jalen Wilson had an opportunity to start on Monday with Thomas missing and looks set to head back to the bench versus the Wizards, where he doesn't carry any fantasy appeal.
Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas (back) is questionable for Wednesday's game in Washington. Cameron Johnson (toe) and Dennis Smith Jr. (hip) were ruled out shortly before Monday's win over Toronto. Unfortunately, the Nets would lose another of their core players heading into that one, with Thomas suffering lower back tightness during pre-game warmups. As a result, Jalen Wilson moved into the starting lineup and finished with 11 points, five rebounds, one steal, and one block in 30 minutes. However, Dennis Schroder had a team-high 19 points and seven assists. Nonetheless, if Thomas is out against the Wizards, Schroder is a lock for any fantasy lineup, while guys like Wilson, Trendon Watford, and Dorian Finney-Smith will have DFS value potential.
Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas (back) won't play on Monday against Toronto. He wasn't listed on the injury report, so the back issue likely flared up during pregame activities. The Nets were already down Cameron Johnson (toe), and now the team will be without another one of their top performers. Of course, Mikal Bridges should pick up some of the slack. At the same time, Dennis Schroder and Dorian Finney-Smith should also see an uptick in fantasy production, with Jalen Wilson now on the radar as a DFS value option.
Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas had another splendid outing despite his team losing in overtime to the Spurs on Sunday night. Thomas logged 39 minutes, scoring 31 points. He added five assists and demonstrated his defensive acumen by amassing two steals. The 22-year-old has significantly increased his production from last season and is currently a Most Improved Player of the Year candidate heading toward the offseason. Thomas has had trouble staying healthy, which has slightly lowered his fantasy value, and his shot selection isn't always the best. However, he'll see more attention from fantasy managers heading into the 2024-25 campaign, whether he's still in Brooklyn or playing elsewhere.
