Cam Thomas Injured, Nets Bench, And More In The Friday Mailbag
The Locked on Nets guys hit up a Friday mailbag talking all things Brooklyn Nets. They speculate about Cam Thomas’s injury (show recorded before the official news that he would be reevaluated in 10 days), talk lineups and what players now need to step up. Mikal Bridges and Spencer Dinwiddie are really going to need to fill the void.
They talk about the Nets bench this season and what it’s been like rooting for this team and also what the expectations are with the advanced metrics really liking what the team is doing this season.

Ngl 4-4 to start the season for a team that’s not expected to make the playoffs by many, AND with so many fuckin injuries to start the season is solid…we still have guys that can get us wins…IMPORTANTLY Lonnie Walker and Mikal. Ben needs to get his shit together as far as scoring but give my Nets the props they deserve at the moment
With Cam Johnson "probable" and Ben "questionable," whether they play tonight will be a game time decision. I'm hoping load management is in play. The quickest way that players get injured are when they play out of position with too many minutes. I don't like seeing 6`7", 220 lbs forward DFS trying to guard 7' 0" center Porzingis.
We should be ramping up developing Patrick Gardner that's on the Long Island Nets roster. We need a center. Harry Giles should get some burn against the Celtics. It's best to see his performance against a tough team.
Hope simmons decides to score more with ct being out for a while
2 week timeline is great news but for some reason I'm feeling like it'll be longer. Always the case with us and this training staff
Can’t wait to see what Whitehead has. Top level potential that kid.
@LockedOnNets what you think about the nickname “Cam Cook” as a play off of the artist Sam Cooke. Or even “Baby Kobe” but that one is a bit more generic howbeit true lol
Brooklyn probably got the best news possible considering how nasty it looked when Thomas left the game.
Thomas will be out for the next two weeks at least and will undergo rehab treatment and be evaluated in two weeks…
This is some big relief news for any fans who thought he would miss a lot more time. Looks like no severe ligament damage other than a stinger of a sprain and hopefully Thomas will come back even stronger.
In the meantime without Thomas, the narrative can now shift towards The Twins Mikal Bridges and Cam Johnson leading this squad forward.
So far the chemistry is building well and this team has a good depth of talent that is enjoying playing together….
The dsj disrespect is crazy
They said yesterday that Cam is out for 2 weeks and will be re-evaluated after the 2 weeks
