Fantasy Impact

Thomas scored 22.0 points in the Nets’ loss to the Hawks, continuing his fantastic play this month. He has been a great source of value coming off the bench, and it seems the coaching staff finally realized he could be a better contributor running with the second-team than with the starters. Thomas is a talented, albeit still developing, offensive weapon and could see his real and fantasy value increase substantially should he find a way to fill at least one to two performance categories each time he's on the floor. His ability to change the game's momentum with his aggressive play style is also something to note; anytime he has gotten to the charity-stripe five or more times in a game, he has averaged 26.08 points. Thomas is still a bit risky to invest in given his slightly inflated price-tag and scoring-dependent value; however, if he can maintain and build on this kind of production, he could be a viable last-piece asset for your roster construction, as it may be the best time to invest in him before the market's probable adjustment to his potential.
