Thomas officially signed with the Nets on Tuesday, Ian Begley of SNY reports.
EDGE Analysis
Rumors of a deal between the two sides had bubbled up in recent days, and the veteran will now officially join a re-worked Nets roster that's without DeAndre Jordan, Taurean Prince, Spencer Dinwiddie, Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving. Thomas spent time with the Nets during the preseason back in September and October, so he may bring some familiarity, but Brooklyn has, of course, switched coaches in the time since.

Thomas signed with the Nets on Friday, Mike Vorkunov of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
This signing had been expected for the last couple days but Thomas now officially occupies the last spot on the Nets' 20-man roster heading into training camp. He could certainly make the team and serve as additional frontcourt depth in the season ahead after doing the same for the Knicks over the past five seasons.

Thomas is expected to sign with the Nets, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
While nothing is set in stone, Thomas' presence could help create some floor spacing. He struggled from distance last year, but Thomas shot at least 40 percent from beyond the arc each of the prior three seasons.

Thomas was waived by the Knicks on Saturday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Thomas, who averaged 4.5 points, and 2.5 rebounds in 17.0 minutes per game last year, was let go Saturday after five seasons with the Knicks. After shooting better than 40 percent from three from 2015-17, Thomas shot just 27.8 percent from behind the arc in 2018. He'll likely garner some interest later on in free agency and could find a rotational role elsewhere.

Thomas (personal) is considered questionable for Wednesday's game against Detroit.
EDGE Analysis
Thomas was held out of Tuesday's game while dealing with a personal matter, and the Knicks still aren't sure if he'll be back with the team for Wednesday's regular season finale. Regardless, Thomas isn't much of a fantasy consideration, as he's averaged just 4.8 points and 3.8 rebounds across 21.2 minutes per game over his last five healthy contests.
