Thomas averaged 23 points per game for LSU last year. So far for the Nets this year, the first-round pick is averaging 6.3 points per game in 15.5 minutes per contest.
Here’s Thomas breaking down what happened on the final play, when the Spurs clearly thought Kevin Durant would be taking the shot:
"I told Kevin … End the game. So he gave it to me, so I said I'll do it."

Thomas clearly doesn’t mind having the ball in clutch situations. Perhaps more game-winning shots are coming in his future.
