Thomas agreed to a two-year partially guaranteed deal with the Pistons, the Detroit Free Press reports. |
Thomas was an All-Star for the Pistons' D-League affiliate last season, averaging 18.9 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 2.3 three-pointers in 36 minutes per game over 51 contests. During the Orlando Pro Summer League, Thomas posted 8.6 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.2 three-pointers in 26 minutes per game.
