Brooklyn Nets Guard Cam Thomas Sets New NBA Record (Casino.Org News)

Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas set a new NBA record as the youngest player in history to score 40 or more points in 3 consecutive games.

The Celtics are a big favorite to win the Atlantic Division at -1200 odds, followed by the 76ers (+600) and Nets (+4000). With a 32-22 record, the Nets currently hold down fifth place in the Eastern Conference. The Nets remain in New York City between now and the All-Star game break, which starts next weekend. However, the Nets might not be dead in the water with the surprise emergence of Thomas. The Brooklyn Nets selected Thomas with the #27 pick late in the first round. On Monday, Thomas scored a career-high 47 points against the Los Angeles Clippers. The Nets are currently +1800 odds to win the title, according to DraftKings. He shot 18-for-20 from the free-throw line. During his first 33 games this season, Thomas averaged 7.0 points per game off the bench, but some nights he only played a couple of minutes. He scored 43 points against the Phoenix Suns Tuesday night after exploding for a career-high 47 points on Monday night against the Los Angeles Clippers. Allen Iverson set the initial three-game record when he dropped five-straight 40-point games during his rookie season with the Philadelphia 76ers in 1996-97. He also scored 44 points over the weekend against the Washington Wizards.

Cam Thomas Is Vindication For Bucket Enthusiasts, If Not For The ... (Defector)

To a certain type of squinting basketball reactionary, present-day NBA scoring is a travesty. Gone is the midrange artistry, they say.

If he can keep up this scoring, he will slot in nicely as a third option for the rejiggered Nets. In his second season, 37 percent percent of Thomas's field goals have come after [taking three or more dribbles](https://www.nba.com/stats/player/1630560/shots-dash), and 28 percent of them have come after seven dribbles, which are pretty hilarious numbers for anyone, let alone a teammate of KD and Kyrie. He is wired to do this one thing—score—and he will do it pretty well, at least until the fatigue catches up to him, as he admitted it did after last night's Suns loss. In Tuesday night's loss against the Suns, Thomas then proved his mettle as a foul merchant, going 18-for-20 from the free-throw line. [since his time as LSU](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QwohDYpjMto&pp=ygUVY2FtIHRob21hcyBoaWdobGlnaHRz), and then throughout his rookie year with the Nets, in which he crossed the 20-point threshold 10 times. He's now the second-youngest player ever to score 40 points in two consecutive games, after LeBron James, and the youngest ever to score 40 in three consecutive games.

But if you put a little bit more investment into it — like a home cooked meal — you get to learn about the ingredients and what it takes,” Vaughn said. That’s what you need now, you need a lot of people supporting you and having your best interest. “So he’s learned the ingredients of being a professional basketball player, not the vending machine, not the quick and easy.” Thomas has played better than the Nets could’ve expected. Right now for Cam this is the best thing for our team, for him to be showcased to score the basketball. His 134 points in that stretch are the most ever by a Net in a three-game span, breaking the team record set by (naturally) Irving.
