Former Boston Celtics point guard Isaiah Thomas has made his way back to the NBA, with the Athletic’s Shams Charania reporting that Thomas will sign a rest-of-season deal with the Phoenix Suns after a successful run with Phoenix in recent weeks as the 2023-24 season winds down.
“In his 12th NBA season, Thomas completed two 10-days – providing the Suns backcourt depth, strong leadership and vet presence in (the) locker room,” writes Charania. In the 4 games the former King in the Fourth has played in this stint with the Suns organization, IT has logged 1.3 points and 0.5 assists per contest.
Shooting a crisp 50.0% from beyond the arc, Thomas’s game may be a bit rusty with him shooting just 25.0% from the floor overall. But we imagine the Little Guy bumping those averages up a bit as the Suns inch closer to the postseason.
