NBA Free Agency: 5 Best Point Guards Available in 2018

#2 Isaiah Thomas

Can Isaiah convince teams he is still worth it?

Nobody could have predicted how this season would pan out for Isaiah Thomas. The third best scorer in the 2016-17 NBA hoped his record season will insure him a big contract in 2018. However, to his dismay, the Celtics traded him to the Cavaliers, while injured, as a part of the package that sent Kyrie Irving to Boston.

After missing the first half of the season due to that injury, he came back only to be traded again, this time to the Los Angeles Lakers, after playing just 15 games for Cleveland. His numbers took a deep decline, dropping from 28.9 points per game the previous year to just 15.2 this season.

A 36.7% three-point shooter for his career until this season, Thomas shot only 29.3% per cent from deep and additionally shot just 37.3% from the field, a six per cent drop compared to his career numbers. Even though he looked to get paid this summer, hard to see any team in the league signing him to a contract worth even half the max. But even with that in mind, Isaiah Thomas still has the potential to contribute to a playoff team.
