Sat Mar 15 | 14:37 | Cam Thomas Expected To Miss Rest Of The Season |
Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas (hamstring) is expected to miss the remainder of the 2024-25 campaign. He has another left hamstring strain, with the team ruling him out due to "the number of days remaining in the schedule and the time needed to appropriately recover." Outside of the injuries, the 23-year-old had an excellent season, averaging career-highs in points (24.0), rebounds (3.3), and assists (3.8). But with Thomas and the organization failing to reach a contract agreement early in the season, he'll become a restricted free agent this summer. Without question, the 2021 No. 27 overall pick is loaded with talent. However, Thomas' inability to stay healthy will negatively impact his fantasy stock moving ahead. Without Thomas on the floor, guys like Tyrese Martin and Keon Johnson should benefit. |

Fri Mar 14 | 21:54 | Cam Thomas Sits Out First Leg Of Back-To-Back Saturday |
Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Cam Thomas (hamstring) will not be in the lineup on Saturday against the Boston Celtics. Brooklyn will give the talented scorer some time off to manage a hamstring injury as the team begins a back-to-back set. Thomas is likely to return to action on Sunday against the Atlanta Hawks. Keon Johnson stepped in for Thomas in the starting unit Monday night against the Los Angeles Lakers and may receive another start on Saturday. Tyrese Martin will likely also see more action with Thomas on the shelf. |

Fri Feb 28 | 19:03 | Cam Thomas Returns To Nets Lineup Friday |
Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Cam Thomas (hamstring) will be back on the court Friday against the Portland Trail Blazers. The team has removed him from the injury report ahead of the game. Thomas last saw action on Jan. 2, missing 24 games due to a hamstring injury. Before going down, Thomas enjoyed a big start to the season, averaging a career-high 24.7 points. He will immediately become Brooklyn's top scoring option again, though the team might monitor Thomas' workload following his extended layoff. Keon Johnson and Tyrese Martin will likely have to settle for lesser roles in the rotation now that Thomas is back. |

Sat Feb 22 | 12:55 | Cam Thomas Nearing A Return? |
Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas (hamstring) remains out on Saturday against the 76ers. The 2021 No. 27 overall pick has had the best season of his career, averaging 24.7 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 3.4 assists. However, he's appeared in only two games since the November 25 win over the Golden State Warriors. On a positive note, Thomas has resumed 5-on-5 practice sessions. "Recovery is going great," said Thomas recently. "Can't wait to get back on the court." The Nets are currently on the outside of a Play-In berth, so the team hopes to get him back in the lineup as soon as possible. But with D'Angelo Russell (ankle) sidelined, Brooklyn will rely mostly on Cameron Johnson, Keon Johnson, Trendon Watford, and Nicolas Claxton for production. |

Mon Jan 27 | 20:51 | Cam Thomas To Undergo Testing On Wednesday |
Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas (hamstring) is scheduled to undergo additional testing on Wednesday. Afterwards, the Nets are expected to give a better timetable on the possible return of Thomas. He has been out since early January, but hopefully won't be missing much more action. Thomas has reportedly been doing on-court and non-contact workouts, which means he should be inching closer to a return. The expectation is that Thomas is going to be under a minutes limit once he is cleared to play. In the meantime, Keon Johnson should continue benefiting with increased playing time. |

Sat Jan 4 | 16:39 | Cam Thomas Sustains New Hamstring Strain, Will Be Out At Least Two Weeks |
Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas (hamstring) sustained a new hamstring strain against the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday and will be re-evaluated after the team's upcoming west coast road trip, according to the team. The Nets' final game of that road trip is January 19th in Oklahoma City, sidelining Thomas for at least two weeks before being re-evaluated. Thomas strained his left hamstring, which is the same hamstring that caused him to miss all but one game in December. The 23-year-old has been a dynamic offensive scorer when healthy but has only been able to play in 19 of Brooklyn's 34 games this season. In his absence, expect newly acquired D'Angelo Russell to get extended run at point guard. |

Fri Jan 3 | 18:12 | Cam Thomas Uncertain To Face The 76ers |
Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas (hamstring) is questionable for Saturday's meeting with the 76ers. The 23-year-old missed over a month because of a hamstring strain. However, he has appeared in two games since returning, most recently amassing 24 points, seven rebounds, and two steals on Thursday against the Milwaukee Bucks. With Cameron Thomas (ankle) doubtful, the Nets may need more production from Ben Simmons, Nicolas Claxton, Jalen Wilson, and D'Angelo Russell, who has averaged 16.5 points, 10.0 assists, and 1.5 steals in two games since returning to Brooklyn. |

Thu Jan 2 | 19:22 | Cam Thomas Active On Thursday |
Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Cam Thomas (hamstring) will be in the lineup on Thursday against Milwaukee. The talented scorer has just returned from a hamstring strain and sat out Wednesday's contest against Toronto for injury management purposes. Thomas made his comeback from a 13-game absence in a bench role on Sunday against Orlando. Still, he provided plenty to fantasy managers in 25 minutes, notching 25 points with six rebounds and five assists. The Bucks know all about Thomas' quality after giving up 32 points to the 23-year-old in a 115-102 loss on Oct. 27. |

Tue Dec 31 2024 | 20:13 | Cam Thomas Listed As Out Wednesday Against Toronto |
Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas (hamstring) returned from a 13-game absence on Sunday, but he was listed as out due to left-hamstring injury management for Wednesday's game in Toronto. In his return, Thomas looked great with 25 points, six rebounds, and five assists in 25 minutes, but he'll take a break Wednesday on the front half of the team's back-to-back that finishes Thursday with a game in Milwaukee against the Bucks. Without Thomas, Keon Johnson and Tyrese Martin will likely get more work in the backcourt and be viable, cheap DFS plays. Ziaire Williams could also help carry the load if he is ready to return from an extended absence due to a left knee sprain suffered on Dec. 1. |

Sun Dec 29 2024 | 14:28 | Cam Thomas Returning On Sunday |
Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas (hamstring) is available for Sunday's game against the Orlando Magic. Thomas is back in the mix after missing the last 13 games due to a strained left hamstring. The assumption is that Thomas is going to be operating under a minutes limit during his first game back. That being said, Thomas won't be an ideal DFS option for Sunday, but fantasy managers in season-long formats can get him back in their lineups. He should be back up to full speed after a game or two. |

Thu Dec 26 2024 | 09:16 | Cam Thomas Remains Out Thursday |
Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Cam Thomas (hamstring) will remain on the shelf for Thursday's game against Milwaukee. It was announced earlier this week that Thomas has progressed to five-on-five action in practice. This is a sign that the talented scorer is nearing his return. However, Thursday's game comes too soon for him. Following Thursday night, the Nets have two more games to come this week, which might include Thomas' comeback. Keon Johnson, Tyrese Martin, and Shake Milton should continue to see rotational minutes during Thomas' absence. |

Wed Nov 27 2024 | 22:45 | Cam Thomas Sidelined 3-4 Weeks |
Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas (hamstring) could be sidelined for up to a month. The 23-year-old had 34 points in Sunday's win over the Sacramento Kings. However, he injured his hamstring in Monday's win over the Golden State Warriors. Thomas has had a career-year, averaging 24.7 points and shooting 38.9% from behind the arc. But he's had trouble staying healthy over the years, which could mean the team will play it safe by not rushing him back. Even then, Thomas may need to log fewer minutes in order to stay on the court. At any rate, Cameron Johnson and Dennis Schroder are the favorites to pick up the slack offensively. Ziaire Williams, amassing 19 points versus the Warriors, is worth keeping an eye on for streaming purposes, assuming he continues to play well. Lastly, Ben Simmons could also benefit from Thomas' absence, although he hasn't played in consecutive games this season. |

Tue Nov 26 2024 | 22:48 | Cam Thomas Sidelined For Wednesday's Matchup With Phoenix |
Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas (hamstring) won't play in Wednesday's game in Phoenix. The 23-year-old had 34 points in Sunday's win over the Kings. Unfortunately, he logged only 21 minutes on Monday against the Warriors because of hamstring soreness, so he'll sit out the final game of the Nets' road trip. With Cameron Johnson (ankle) and Nicolas Claxton (back) both questionable, Dennis Schroder, Jalen Wilson, and even Ben Simmons may get more involved on the scoring end. |

Thu Nov 21 2024 | 17:30 | Cam Thomas Probable On Friday Night |
Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas (back) is probable for Friday's matchup with the Philadelphia 76ers. The 2021 No. 27 overall pick is having the best year of his career, averaging 24.6 points and 39.2% shooting from deep. Unfortunately, he experienced back tightness before Tuesday's NBA Cup win over the Charlotte Hornets. With Thomas sidelined for that one, Cameron Johnson had a fantastic showing, finishing with 34 points, two blocks, and one steal while going 6-for-12 from behind the arc. Fantasy managers should expect to have Thomas back in the lineup against the struggling 76ers, although his presence will have a negative impact on Jalen Wilson's potential. |

Tue Nov 19 2024 | 19:33 | Cam Thomas Will Not Play Tuesday |
Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Cam Thomas (back) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against Charlotte. He will miss his first game of the season due to a back problem.

Thomas' first opportunity to return comes on Friday versus Philadelphia. |

Tue Nov 19 2024 | 19:23 | Cam Thomas Is Questionable For Tuesday |
Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas (back) has been downgraded to questionable for Tuesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets due to lower back tightness. This marks a concerning shift in status for the 23-year-old, who had initially been listed as probable. If Thomas is unable to play, Ziaire Williams and Keon Johnson could see expanded roles, while Shake Milton may also step up to help fill the void. Thomas has been playing heavy minutes this season, averaging 34.2 per game along with an impressive 24.6 points. |

Mon Aug 19 2024 | 20:47 | Cam Thomas "Ready" For Enhanced Role |
Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas is ready for an expanded role this season after the team traded Mikal Bridges to the Knicks. "I'm not really worried about it," said Thomas when asked about the pressures of becoming a leader for the Nets. "I'm just excited to get it going and to try to do it in the league. I'm not really worried about it at all; I'm just ready." The 22-year-old averaged 22.5 points in 2023-24, easily the highest of his career. Fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised to see Thomas enter the All-Star conversation during the 2024-25 campaign, although he'll need to stay healthy, with the 2021 No. 27 overall pick appearing in just 66 games last season. |

Wed Mar 27 2024 | 18:08 | Cam Thomas Cleared For Action Wednesday |
Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Cam Thomas (back) will be back on the court Wednesday versus Washington. He was initially regarded as questionable for the game after Thomas was a late scratch for Monday's meeting with Toronto. Thomas has had a great campaign, leading his team with 21.5 points per game, and he should be in full flow on Wednesday in a pace-up spot against one of the worst defensive teams in the league. Jalen Wilson had an opportunity to start on Monday with Thomas missing and looks set to head back to the bench versus the Wizards, where he doesn't carry any fantasy appeal. |

Tue Mar 26 2024 | 21:18 | Cam Thomas Draws Questionable Tag For Wednesday |
Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas (back) is questionable for Wednesday's game in Washington. Cameron Johnson (toe) and Dennis Smith Jr. (hip) were ruled out shortly before Monday's win over Toronto. Unfortunately, the Nets would lose another of their core players heading into that one, with Thomas suffering lower back tightness during pre-game warmups. As a result, Jalen Wilson moved into the starting lineup and finished with 11 points, five rebounds, one steal, and one block in 30 minutes. However, Dennis Schroder had a team-high 19 points and seven assists. Nonetheless, if Thomas is out against the Wizards, Schroder is a lock for any fantasy lineup, while guys like Wilson, Trendon Watford, and Dorian Finney-Smith will have DFS value potential. |
