NEW YORK — Cam Thomas can’t be the happiest person in the room.
Just like the phrase Thomas recently attempted to trademark, there “ain’t s--- funny” about a player posting 40 or more points in three straight games suddenly getting relegated to a bench role.
That, however, is his current reality: Thomas exploded for those 40-point performances while Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant orchestrated their trades out of Brooklyn. Now with Spencer Dinwiddie starting, Thomas has been moved back to the bench, and with Seth Curry returning the rotation after the All-Star break, head coach Jacque Vaughn says Thomas could be on the periphery of what he hopes is a rotation that moves closer to fewer than 10 players a night.
