Pistons, Mavs, Lakers and Heat looking hard at restricted free agent Isaiah Thomas
Aaron Bruski Jun 30, 2014, 11:28 PM EDT

Sacramento Kings starting point guard Isaiah Thomas has beaten the odds for his entire basketball career and now he’s set to get his first big payday.

The Kings recently extended a qualifying offer to Thomas making him a restricted free agent, and league sources tell PBT that as many as five teams have expressed interest in making an offer to steal away the point guard.

The Pistons, Heat, Lakers, Mavs and Suns have all expressed interest, with the Pistons showing the most interest to date and numbers starting in the three-year, $24 million range. Talks with teams in playoff contention have started in the $6-7 million per-year range.

sign and trade with josh smith coming....? one can hope.

I'd want to ditch Jennings before I took on Isaiah.

That name is scary, though...

This is really heating up, I'm told.

:kennythejet:

would be nice to swap the two but also include josh smith for a piece back and maybe a draft pick. Thomas would be a good backup or short term player. high energy, good distributor and nice shooter.
