Many people around the league, including fans, did not know how much longer Cam Thomas wanted to play for the team that drafted him. Well, no need to speculate and guess, as he has publicly assured Brooklyn fans that he wants to re-sign with the Nets.
In a recent interview with his hometown news station in Chesapeake, Virginia, a topic that came up was his future in the NBA and where he wants to play come next regular season.
“I definitely, definitely want to be back in Brooklyn. It’s definitely home for me. Being drafted there you definitely build bonds with a lot of people there. So, I definitely love it there,” Thomas said. “But at the same time, you have to do what’s best for you in the business aspects. So, I have to play that by ear, but I definitely want to be back for sure. I definitely love Brooklyn.”
This offseason, the 23-year-old is a restricted free agent. The Nets have significantly more cap space than majority of the league, so it will be easier to not allow teams to match their offer on Thomas.
The breakout guard averaged 24.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 3.8 assists per game last season. This is back-to-back seasons of Thomas averaging twenty-plus points per game.
