Steve Lichtenstein, writing for his Steve’s Newsletter substack, likes Cam Thomas’ confidence and enthusiasm, as evidenced by a claim he could average 25 points a game with the ball in his hands. But Lichtenstein, who previously worked for WFAN, isn’t sure that Thomas will have the ball in his hand as much as he thinks. He’ll have competition from Lonnie Walker IV who the Nets signed to a vets minimum deal after averaging 11.7 points a game in 23 minutes per game on 45/37/86 shooting splits for the Lakers.
Walker, who’s 24, is an underrated signing by Brooklyn.
