Cam Thomas ruled out the Pacers game with a hamstring injury


Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas is out for the rest of the Indiana Pacers game on Wednesday with a strained left hamstring. Thomas injured his hamstring early in the first quarter attempting a back jump shot. He cautiously jogged down the field before asking to be sent off.

The Nets immediately cut the fifth-year guard out for the night. Thomas sprained the same hamstring three times last season, limiting him to 25 games.

When asked about his hamstring struggles in the offseason, Thomas called his injuries “bad luck” and said he won’t be re-evaluating his training regimen. Despite those comments, the 25-year-old this summer she experienced a noticeable body transformation.

In training camp, he said he lost “a good amount” of weight, although the change was aimed more at his appearance than performance issues.

“Just something I want to do. It’s just that I’m … not really into the hammy, Thomas said. “The last two years, I’ve wanted to put on a little more weight, try the strong, bulky route. It was cool, but I never liked the way I looked, honestly. The results were still good, but at the end of the day, it’s about how you look and how you feel, so I feel like I’m looking better and feeling better. We’ll see how it goes this year.”

Thomas is in a post-signing contract season his qualifying offer of $6 million this summer. The former first-round pick is turning down a two-year, $30 million contract that includes a team option from the Nets.

Thomas scored big but struggled to maintain his efficiency or impact the game in other areas during Brooklyn’s 0-7 start. He averaged 24.4 points, 1.6 rebounds and 2.9 assists on .408/.356/.875 shooting.
