Isaiah Thomas could be playing for Cavaliers next week
INDEPENDENCE, Ohio (AP) — Isaiah Thomas played Santa Claus on Wednesday. Soon, he'll be playing point guard for the Cavaliers.
Thomas said he could be on the floor in games as early as next week for Cleveland after being sidelined with a hip injury that knocked him out of last season's playoffs. Thomas has progressed to the point where he will be scrimmaging 5 on 5 in the next few days with the possibility of playing in games with the Cavs before the year ends.
"When that time comes to where I'll be out there, I'm sure everybody is going to know and I'll be out there playing the way I've always played," said Thomas, who hosted a holiday party for some area kids at the team's training facility.
