Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas is looking for his payday this summer, but it seems unlikely to happen. The Athletic's Fred Katz gave an update.

The Athletic recently polled 16 members of NBA front offices (including no one from the Nets), asking what they would consider a “fair” contract for each restricted free agent who remains unsigned: Thomas, the Golden State Warriors’ Jonathan Kuminga, the Chicago Bulls’ Josh Giddey and the Philadelphia 76ers’ Quentin Grimes.

Not extending Thomas and letting him join a contending team next season through a sign and trade would be a huge mistake for the Nets moving forward as a rebuilding team. Brooklyn finished the 2024-25 regular season with a 26-56 record in 12th place in the Eastern Conference.
