Two-time All-Star guard Isaiah Thomas is attempting an NBA comeback with the Utah Jazz’s G League affiliate, ESPN reported Monday.
Thomas, 35, is expected to debut for the Salt Lake City Stars this week, per the report.
He played in six games last season with the Phoenix Suns and has made only one start in the NBA since the beginning of the 2020-21 campaign.
Thomas, who earned consecutive All-Star nods with Boston in 2015-16 and 2016-17, has suited up for 10 teams in 12 seasons. He owns career averages of 17.5 points, 4.8 assists and 2.4 rebounds in 556 games (362 starts).
Thomas finished fifth in the NBA MVP voting in 2016-17 after averaging a career-high 28.9 points and 5.9 assists in 76 games (all starts) for Boston, earning a spot on the All-NBA second team.
