Zach Mikash (@ZachMikash): I’m generally fine with it. The backup point guard market was thiiiiin and the Nuggets had no scoring punch off the bench with Will Barton looking like the new starting small forward. Someone’s got to occupy the 30 or so minutes that have been vacated by Wilson Chandler’s departure and someone’s got to be able to create on offense when Nikola Jokic is on the bench. If the choices for that player are either Thomas, Monte Morris, Torrey Craig or Malik Beasley, well, Thomas seems to be the clear favorite there.
