Brooklyn Nets standout guard Cam Thomas sustained a left hamstring strain and will be re-evaluated in three weeks, the team announced Wednesday.
Thomas, 23, had an MRI exam on Tuesday that revealed the injury. ESPN reported earlier that Thomas will miss three to four weeks.
Thomas played in the Nets’ 128-120 comeback victory over the host Golden State Warriors on Monday and departed after sustaining the injury in the third quarter. He was 6 of 11 from the field for 23 points along with three rebounds and one assist in 23 minutes.
He is averaging 24.7 points, 3.4 assists, 3.2 rebounds and 33.4 minutes – all career highs — and started all 17 games played this season. Thomas ranks 14th in the league in scoring through Tuesday.
The Nets selected Thomas 27th overall in the 2021 NBA Draft out of LSU. For his career, Thomas is averaging 14.9 points, 2.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 23.0 minutes in 207 games (74 starts).
The Nets visit the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday night. Former Suns forward Cam Johnson left Tuesday’s game with an ankle injury but has been cleared to play.
