NEW YORK -- Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas was coming an uneven weekend at the New York Knicks in which he went from scoring 43 points on Friday to 16 points on Sunday. In light of that reality, Thomas was looking to get back on the right track in Tuesday's Emirates NBA Cup game against the Charlotte Hornets, but he'll have to wait for his next opportunity.
The Nets announced prior to tipoff on Tuesday that Thomas was ruled out for the contest due to lower back tightness, something that landed him on the injury report earlier in the day, though he was listed as probable.
