The Nets have told Cam Thomas to level up his passing.
He responded with his best assist game since high school — at least — with seven assists to lead the Nets to a 91-84 summer league victory over Philadelphia on Sunday.
All-time best or no, it was auspicious. Thomas has shown he can score, leading the summer league in scoring last year to earn co-MVP honors. And on Sunday against Philadelphia, he had 26 points, three rebounds and two steals. And even though Thomas’ jumper wasn’t falling — going just 5-for-17 from the floor — he played aggressively, getting into the lane to either earn trips to the foul line or create for others. The second-year guard went a perfect 15-for-15 from the free-throw line, and took over late when the Nets needed it.
