2024 Fantasy Outlook
Coming off a solid 2023-24 season, Thomas was expected to be the No. 1 option on offense after Mikal Bridges was traded to the Knicks during the offseason. Thomas showed off his scoring chops early in the 2024-25 season, scoring 30-plus points in six of his first 17 games while averaging 24.7 points on 46.1 percent shooting and 38.9 percent from three. However, the prolific scoring guard was bothered by a left hamstring strain in late November, which impacted his shooting efficiency for the rest of the season and forced him to miss 56 of the Nets' final 64 games. It's also worth noting, despite his hamstring issues and shoot-first mentality, that Thomas averaged a career-high 3.8 assists per game, which should make him more appealing to fantasy managers. A full offseason should be enough for him to enter training camp with a clean bill of health, and even with the addition of Michael Porter, Thomas should still get the lion's share of usage on offense. With that said, Thomas had to settle for a one-year, $6 million qualifying offer from the Nets this offseason and will have a full no-trade clause until he hits unrestricted free agency next offseason. He'll have immense pressure to produce a big season and get paid in the summer. On the flip side, the Nets won't be incentivized to play him heavy minutes and let him run the offense since he's operating on a small deal, can't be traded and likely won't be returning to Brooklyn in 2026-27. Thomas is a high-risk, high-reward fantasy option in 2025-26. Read Past Outlooks

Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary

Cameron Bouchea Thomas was born in October of 2001 in Yokosuka, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan. He is the son of Leslie Thomas and has an older sister. For prep school, Thomas initially attended Oscar F. Smith High School in Chesapeake, Virginia. Prior to his junior season, he transferred to Oak Hill Academy in Mouth of Wilson, Virginia. At Oak Hill, he was teammates with Cole Anthony and Kofi Cockburn. As a senior at Oak Hill, Thomas scored 31.5 points per game and was selected to play in the Jordan Brand Classic. In November of 2019, Thomas committed to playing ball at Louisiana State University. The combo guard played one season at LSU and as a freshman was named to the First Team All-SEC squad. Thomas then declared for the 2021 NBA Draft. The Brooklyn Nets selected Thomas with the 27th overall pick.

March 2, 2026
Thomas chipped in two points (0-3 FG, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one steal across 11 minutes during Monday's 108-81 loss to the Celtics.
ANALYSIS
After a few encouraging performances following his move to Milwaukee, it appears as though Thomas has reverted back to his old ways. In seven games over the past two weeks, he has averaged 11.3 points in 17.7 minutes, leaving him outside the top 300 in standard leagues. At this point, there is no reason to be rostering Thomas, outside of deeper formats.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2022
2021
Thomas is coming off a career-best year during which he finished as the 130th-ranked player in nine-category leagues. In 31.4 minutes per night, he averaged a healthy 22.5 points per game, adding 3.2 rebounds, 2.9 assists, 0.7 steals and 2.2 three-pointers. Heading into the 2024-25 season, the Nets are likely to struggle when it comes to victories. After parting ways with Mikal Bridges during the offseason, Thomas is left as the clear No. 1 option on offense. Should the coaching staff opt to fully unleash him, there is no knowing just how many shots Thomas will fire up on a nightly basis. If he can push to 20 shot attempts, it is not unreasonable to think he could average upwards of 25.0 points per contest. The lack of peripheral numbers continues to be a stumbling block when evaluating his overall upside. However, he was able to increase his assist production last season. If he manages to do that again, Thomas would be more appealing. While there is cause for hesitation, Thomas makes sense as a viable flier target in the seventh or eighth round.
On the whole, it was another underwhelming season for Thomas, ending as the 351st-ranked player in nine-category leagues. In 16.6 minutes per night, he averaged 10.6 points, adding very little else. Herein lies the problem with Thomas. He has proven himself to be a competent scorer, delivering multiple 40-point games last season. The issue is that he offers basically nothing else when he is on the floor. This was highlighted by the fact that he was not even a part of the regular rotation to close last season, despite the team having parted ways with Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant. Thomas should be in the discussion for playing time again this season but will be battling the likes of Ben Simmons, Spencer Dinwiddie, Mikal Bridges and Dennis Smith for playing time. He is not worth drafting outside of deeper formats but is someone to monitor closely should he be able to diversify his game to the point where he forces the coaching staff to give him minutes.
It's all about opportunity for Thomas, who, despite a few flashes during his rookie season, finished well outside the top 300 per game in eight-category roto leagues. When handed a significant role, Thomas flaunted his offensive ability, scoring at least 20 points in six of eight games during a stretch in February. He ended his first season in the league with averages of 8.5 points and 2.4 rebounds. Based on what we have seen, Thomas would need Kevin Durant and/or Kyrie Irving to be traded to have a shot at consistent fantasy value. While this could certainly happen at some point in the near future, as of right now, he is not on the radar for anyone preparing for an early fantasy draft.
Thomas was selected by the Nets with the 27th overall pick in the 2021 NBA Draft. Thomas was a high-volume scorer for LSU as a freshman, averaging 23.0 points per game in addition to 3.4 rebounds and 1.5 assists. He's expected to be a pure scorer at the NBA level, as he doesn't excel anywhere else. Notably, he was named co-MVP of the 2021 Summer League. He averaged 27.0 points on 42/36/85 shooting splits. While he recorded nearly twice as many turnovers (3.8) as assists (2.0), he made up for it with his scoring. With the Nets this season, Thomas figures to compete with Patty Mills and Jevon Carter for reserve minutes in the backcourt.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Praised by head coach
GMilwaukee Bucks
February 13, 2026
Bucks head coach Doc Rivers praised Thomas after he debuted with the Bucks earlier this week. "Cam wants to do right. He wants to play well. You can see that," Rivers told Eric Nehm of The Athletic after Wednesday's win over the Magic. "And we're going to give him every opportunity. I mean, the guy is a natural scorer, and you can see that."
ANALYSIS
Rivers compared Thomas to two former Sixth Man of the Year winners he coached during his tenure with the Clippers, Lou Williams and Jamal Crawford. Thomas scored 46 points combined in the Bucks' final two games before the All-Star break, and he could provide Milwaukee with a huge scoring boost if he manages to find a way into the team's offensive scheme.
