Nets Offer Cam Thomas $28M Over Two Years Amid Contract Standoff

News summary

Cam Thomas, the Brooklyn Nets' leading scorer last season, remains a restricted free agent amid ongoing contract negotiations that highlight a divide between his scoring ability and concerns over his overall fit. The Nets have offered Thomas a two-year deal averaging around $14 million per year, significantly below his expected $20-$30 million range, leading to stalled talks and strained relations. Despite his scoring prowess, including an average of 24 points per game in a limited 25-game season, some NBA executives question whether his style aligns with winning team dynamics, further complicating his valuation. The Nets face a critical decision as their roster lacks strong alternatives for shot creation, making Thomas a valuable asset for their rebuilding efforts. Meanwhile, the Nets' front office, led by GM Sean Marks, is managing broader team-building challenges, with salary cap space preserved for strategic moves beyond just re-signing Thomas. This situation leaves Thomas’ future with the Nets uncertain as the 2025-26 NBA season approaches.
