Frank Vogel said Isaiah Thomas won’t be in the Suns’ rotation when the team is healthy but is a trusted veteran to have in place in case an injury or foul trouble comes up – 8:18 PM

What made Isaiah Thomas want to come back?
“The love. The love for the game. I love it so much. Every time I step on the floor I got that same feeling. It puts a smile on my face. I love competing, I love playing basketball, I love trying to figure out how to get better.” – 2:33 PM

What’s the difference between Isaiah Thomas at age 25 and age 35?
“I feel like I’m better than I was at 25”
IT said he’s the same player he was 10 years ago, except his mind for the game is sharper…and he’s also “just a little more sore after the game” than he was at 25 pic.twitter.com/NsPg2ED7qB – 2:23 PM

More on this storyline
Gerald Bourguet: Isaiah Thomas said he was surprised when the Suns traded him back in 2015, and although it wound up being a blessing in disguise for him in Boston, he and his wife always said Phoenix was the best place they’d been. “So hopefully I could make it last longer than what’s expected” -via Twitter @GeraldBourguet / March 20, 2024
Duane Rankin: Correction: Isaiah Thomas said he wants to play “a few more years” in the #NBA, not five. My apologies. @TheDunkCentral -via Twitter @DuaneRankin / March 20, 2024
