Advanced Search

Isaiah Thomas is an American professional basketball player who currently plays for the Cleveland Cavaliers of the National Basketball Association (NBA). Despite his short stature at 5 feet and 9 inches, he has established himself as an accomplished point guard and has achieved a number of records during his seven-year career so far. He played for the Washington Huskies for three years while in college, and was a three-time all-conference selection in the Pac-10. While he skipped the final year at college for the NBA draft, he was picked by the Sacramento Kings and played for them for three seasons before joining the Phoenix Suns. He played only a few matches for the Suns before being traded to Boston Celtics mid-season. Transfer to Boston came as a boon for him as he developed a good rapport with manager Danny Ainge and coach Brad Stevens. He went on to lead his team to the playoffs for three consecutive years and once to the Eastern Conference finals. Also at Boston, he was named into the 'NBA All-Star' team twice and to the 'All-NBA Second Team' once.
