ISAIAH THOMAS (PHX)
#4•I. THOMAS
PG • 5’9, 185 lbs; 13th year, Washington
SALTY DOG
NBA ROLE: (VETERAN) SCORING POINT
What Isaiah Thomas lacks in height, he makes up in excellent creativity and toughness on the court; a practictioner and devout believer of the mantra, ‘Heart Over Height‘, the Tacoma native was an extremely cunning playmaker in his prime – high-level of command operating pick & rolls, makes patient, reactive reads; great at drawing fouls and absorbing contact – IT also features a bit of finesse, has some of the best hezzies in the league; can still heat up in a hurry: Isaiah’s tough to stop downhill, can hit Js from anywhere off the dribble; still needs to work on defensive intensity (fighting over screens, picking up PGs before they cross the timeline) & shot selection but there’s no questioning IT’s pure takeover ability; signed by Suns (2024) – veteran bucket-getter
