Cam Thomas is that guy.
With the Long Island Nets down 110-102 with 2:44 remaining, Thomas orchestrated a 12-0 run in the clutch. It was part of a stretch where 20-year-old scored 16 of Long Island’s final 20 points. Game over.
Thomas helped deliver the Long Island their second victory of the young G League season, 114-110, as well as handing Raptors 905 — the Raps’ G League affiliate — their first loss. The Nets were coming off of a hearty loss just a day earlier to that same 905 team, one that saw Brooklyn’s G League affiliate team fall behind by as many as 27 points on their home floor.
