Injury history

Back in September of 2019, NBC Sports laid out all of Thomas’ injuries up to that point. Let’s just say if you were on board with bringing him on you may have second thoughts after reading through it.

Obviously, the most notable is a hip injury that he eventually had surgery on.

That kept him from finishing the Celtics 2017 playoff run. On top of that Thomas has had a history of wrist and back injuries among many other issues that have come up throughout his lengthy NBA career.

Since playing 158 games in two seasons with the Celtics, Thomas has barely played over a full season in his last three years, combining for 84 games played. His healthy is just another reason Golden State should pass.

With Ky Bowman and other young point guards on the market, the Warriors, who may want to consider Thomas due to his previous accomplishments, should pass on the former All-Star guard.
