Cam Thomas was fresh off a season-high performance in his last game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Thomas scored 45 points in a loss and seemed ready to make up for it in this game. Unfortunately, he had to be carried off the court as the 20-year-old guard ended up spraining his ankle during the early minutes of the third quarter.
The video clearly shows how Thomas twisted his ankle and has been ruled out for the remainder of the game. During the eight-minute mark of the third quarter, Thomas drove to the rim, while attempting a euro step.

The Brooklyn Nets came into the game quite short-handed. And the injury to Cam Thomas certainly did not increase their odds to win the game. Not to mention James Harden being added to the Clippers’ roster.
But no one out of all the four stars was able to lock in and have a huge game. Out of all the four Clippers’ All-Stars, Paul George led the team with a 24-point performance. Yet that wasn’t enough to take down the Nets.
