Cleared to play

Sitting out Monday
Thomas is out for Monday's game against the Suns due to left hamstring injury management.
Analysis
Monday is the second half of a back-to-back set for the Nets, who are giving Thomas a maintenance day. The expectation is that the shooting guard will return to the lineup for Wednesday's matchup against the Knicks. The likes of Nolan Traore, Drake Powell and Terance Mann should see a boost in minutes Monday.

Limited again Friday
Thomas notched eight points (3-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt), one rebound and four assists across 25 minutes during Friday's 112-109 win over Chicago.
Analysis
Thomas played no more than 25 minutes for the ninth straight game since returning from injury, ending the night with very little for fantasy managers to get excited about. At this point, it doesn't appear as though Brooklyn is going to prioritize Thomas, instead hoping he lands elsewhere prior to the trade deadline. As for his fantasy value, he should be viewed as nothing more than a points and threes streaming option.

Hits for 16 in Wednesday's loss
Thomas logged 16 points (6-15 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound and five assists in 24 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 116-113 loss to the Pelicans.
Analysis
The fifth-year guard sat out Monday's game on the second night of a back-to-back set as the Nets continue to be cautious with his hamstring, but Thomas looked fit in his return. He missed most of November and December with a hamstring strain, but in eight contests since getting back on the court after Christmas, he's averaged 16.1 points, 2.6 assists, 2.1 boards and 1.8 threes in 22.3 minutes from the second unit.
