On March 15, 2022, Beijing time, in the Hornets' away challenge to the Thunder, they have been at a disadvantage since the end of the first quarter, and at most they have been 18 points behind their opponents!
But at this time, the team's veteran Thomas Jr. stepped up, he appeared in the second quarter for 6 minutes, 4 of 4 three-pointers, scored 12 consecutive points, and also delivered 1 assist and 1 block to help the Hornets reverse the score before the end of the second quarter and complete the rebound!
He's once again in favor of the NBA after playing a dominant performance in the development league this season, and the Hornets have signed him to a second 10-day short contract! After coming to the Hornets, he was in very good shape in these games, with 10 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals, 5 points, 2 assists and 14 points, 1 rebound and 1 steal.
In the second quarter of this game, he shot four three-pointers to take the ball, but also showed his perfect feel, it can be said that with his performance, this season to stay with the Hornets until the end of the season should be no problem. The Hornets, a young team, really needed an experienced player like Thomas Jr. to lead the team in the locker room!
For the Hornets, it is also a blessing for the team to have such an all-star player of the past, especially young people like Ramello Ball, who should be able to learn a lot from Thomas Jr.!
