After one game with the Dallas Mavericks, former All-Star guard Isaiah Thomas entered the NBA's health and safety protocols on Thursday.
Thomas was signed to a 10-day hardship deal on Wednesday to replace Brandon Knight, another hardship-deal addition who entered the league's protocols after testing positive for COVID-19.
Thomas, whose 10-day deal with the Los Angeles Lakers expired earlier this week, said he was grocery shopping near his Seattle home Wednesday morning when Mavs general manager Nico Harrison called to inquire about whether he could play in Sacramento that night.
