"Brooklyn's leading scorer was forced out of Wednesday night's game at Indiana with an injury to the same troublesome left hamstring that ruined last season. Thomas missed a 15-foot step back with 6:46 left in the first quarter Wednesday night against the Pacers, appearing to hurt himself on the landing. He jogged gingerly back upcourt and called to the bench for a sub, checking out :21 later."
"The 24-year-old shooting guard was quickly ruled out for the rest of the night by Brooklyn with left hamstring tightness. The severity of the injury is unclear. Thomas had hurt the same hamstring three times last season, when he averaged a team-high 24.0 points on 438/349/881 shooting splits but was limited to just a total of 25 games. After failing to come to a long-term contract extension with the Nets last summer as a restricted free agent, Thomas returned on a one-year $5.99 million qualifying offer."
