Isaiah Thomas is off to one of the best starts in franchise history

Isaiah Thomas has been redefining the odds in the NBA with every scoring burst that he pours into the stat sheet. The 5'9" little guy faced massive obstacles that obstructed his vision on making a professional roster, let alone becoming a star.

There have been players his height before, but none have existed in this era of basketball where ridiculous specimen like Russell Westbrook man the point guard positions. Nate Robinson is Isaiah's size and provided solid services with his time in the league, but he was also a second-unit player and had crazy athleticism on his side that Isaiah does not possess.
