Isaiah Thomas has had one refrain throughout free agency and that is that he wants to be wanted. He wants to be wanted for being 5'9. He wants to be wanted for being a scoring guard. He wants to be wanted for being a great player.
Thomas is definitely wanted in the NBA, especially coming off a season in which he averaged 20.3 points and 6.3 assists (21.2 and 6.8 as a starter), but not necessarily by his former team, the Sacramento Kings.
In an interview with Brett Weisband of Slam Magazine, Thomas opens up about the Kings and Free Agency.
On when he expects a decision to come:
On returning to Sacramento:
On Sacramento's signing of Darren Collison:
Thomas also mentions in the interview that his top destinations as of now are Los Angeles, Phoenix or Dallas and that he's been contacted by the Heat and Pistons as well. With LeBron's decision today, things should start to fall in place. There's a lot more to the interview, but I don't want to take away from the great work Brett did so be sure to go visit Slam to read the rest.
