Isaiah Thomas remains a fan favorite around the NBA.
Isaiah Thomas is one of the best stories in the NBA. When Thomas was on the Boston Celtics, he became an unlikely hero, although once he was traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers following a contract dispute, his career quickly faded away. Since that time, Thomas has jumped from team to team, and throughout this season, he has been forced into a few 10-day contracts which haven’t exactly panned out.
Last night, Thomas made his home debut for the Charlotte Hornets, who just so happened to be playing against the Celtics. In the end, Thomas played just 11 minutes, where he was able to notch himself five points. While the Hornets lost the game, there is no doubt that fans were excited to see him participate in the match.
