"Cam Thomas returned to a Nets team that no longer needed saving. His job was harder than that: fit in and lift it. He did exactly that Saturday night, scoring 30 points on 9-for-15 shooting with three rebounds and four assists in just 20 minutes off the bench as Brooklyn pulled away for a 123-107 road win over the Minnesota Timberwolves."
"With Thomas, Nolan Traore and Danny Wolf anchoring the second unit, the Nets' pace shifted over the final minutes of the period. The ball moved faster. The floor opened up. And Thomas kept attacking downhill. He drew contact again. Then again. By the time the quarter closed, he'd already racked up three and-one plays, scoring nine points in his first six minutes back."
Cam Thomas returned to the Nets and scored 30 points on 9-for-15 shooting with three rebounds and four assists in 20 bench minutes as Brooklyn beat Minnesota 123-107. The win improved Brooklyn to 10-19 and 7-3 over its last 10 games after a 0-7 start. Thomas embraced a super sixth-man role and integrated with Nolan Traore and Danny Wolf, which increased pace and ball movement. He attacked downhill, absorbed contact on drives, and converted multiple three-and-one plays, totaling nine points in his first six minutes. Continued growth from Thomas and the young core could elevate Brooklyn beyond rebuilding.
