Isaiah Thomas has had an extremely unique career.
He began his career as the 60th pick in the 2011 NBA Draft by the Sacramento Kings after three seasons of college basketball at Washington.
Most recently, Thomas spent part of the 2023-24 season with the Phoenix Suns (in a limited role).
On Monday evening, Sean Cunningham of FOX40 News reported that Thomas will be one of several players to work out for the Kings.
Via Cunningham: "Fan favorite Isaiah Thomas will be among a few free agents in Sacramento this week for some competitive workouts with Kings roster players, who are in town. Sources say Tony Bradley, Juan Toscano-Anderson & Lonnie Walker are joining the group."
