Isaiah Thomas Signs with G-League Affiliate in Pursuit of NBA Comeback

The 35-year-old former All-Star aims to return to the NBA, citing personal resilience and inspiration from his children.

Isaiah Thomas has signed with the Salt Lake City Stars, the Utah Jazz's G-League affiliate, in an effort to revive his NBA career.
The two-time All-Star last played in the NBA during the 2023-24 season with a brief stint for the Phoenix Suns, where he struggled to make an impact.
Thomas has faced criticism from fans questioning his decision to continue pursuing an NBA return at the age of 35.
He attributes his perseverance to his love for basketball and the desire to set an example of resilience for his children, who encouraged his G-League return.
Thomas previously excelled in limited G-League appearances in 2024, averaging 32.5 points per game, and hopes to replicate that success.
