Overview
- Thomas exited the first quarter of Wednesday’s win at Indiana with left hamstring tightness and was ruled out for the rest of the game.
- Brooklyn listed him out for Friday against Detroit, and the team has provided no injury grade or timetable as it plans to reevaluate.
- The issue affects the same hamstring that sidelined him three times last season, limiting him to 25 appearances.
- Thomas has led Brooklyn in scoring early this season, averaging roughly 21–24 points per game during the team’s 1–7 start.
- With Thomas out, Michael Porter Jr. paced the offense with 32 points in Indiana, Terance Mann is available for Friday, and rookie Drake Powell is probable.
