Cam Thomas accepts the qualifying range of Nets – and now things can really become messy

Cam Thomas’ months -long impasse with the nets is finally over, where the limited free agent signed the qualifying offer to stay in Brooklyn.

It is a case of Thomas and the nets that have not reached an agreement on a new deal, and Thomas who gambles in itself.

Again.

By exercising it for a year, $ 5.99 million qualifying offer, Thomas left considerable money on the table in the hope of getting more next summer as an unlimited free agent.

Did he also work that his term of office in Brooklyn could come to an end?

The news – first reported by ESPN and confirmed by the mail – comes between the nets and their leading scorer after a long -term contract.

The post reported for the first time that Brooklyn Thomas had given a qualifying offer.

But a source that was familiar with the guard’s thinking, said that he did not consider himself inferior to Immanuel Quickley, Tyler Herro or RJ Barrett “so that he would also like $ 30 million.”

Instead, he was offered about half of them.

And now will play for a fifth of that.

The nets offered Thomas a two-year-old deal of $ 30 million with a team option for the second year, or a one-year-old, $ 9.5 million pact with stimuli up to $ 11 million, while they abandon the no-trade clause, according to ESPN.

The agents of Thomas, Alex Saratsis of Octagon and Ron Shade, have both rejected.

Now Thomas will now try to get more in a year.

That is not certain.

Thomas took his design slot enormously surpassed-27e by the Nets in 2021- In the average of a team-high 24.0 points last season on 44/35/88 splits.

But he was a mediocre playmaker, porous defender and often injured, who only played 25 games because of repeated hamstring problems.

The 23-year-old has fans at the highest level in the Front Office of Nets, but has no robust market around the NBA, according to countless scouts and competition leaders who spoke with the post.

No team has CAP space to sign Thomas this summer.

He can still be traded, but should approve any deal.

While Thomas is a supernatural talented insulation carer, the competition leaves that kind of one -dimensional guards and leans in fast processes of the court.

That was clear in the NBA final and was also clear in both the words and the acts of Nets GM Sean Marks on the Tapnacht.

In the first round he chose three point protectors (Egor DUMMIN, Nolan Traore and Ben Saraf), as well as a fourth player who served as the primary playmaker of his team (Danny Wolf).

They apparently have a new ‘type’, and it sounds like Thomas might not be the case.

“Yes, that goes hand in hand with IQ and how they play the game,” said Marks about the style of playing the nets that wants. “Very fast decisions. It is 0.5 seconds basketball, you catch and make a decision. You don’t hold the ball.”
