The 32-year-old guard, who had previously told reporters that he is in talks with four NBA teams and has also worked out with the Los Angeles Lakers, responded to the rumors linking him to the seven-time European champions. Citing a tweet from NBA reporter Keith Smith, Thomas wrote: "No Sir, not me! I will not be going overseas. Wrong Isaiah."

Thomas briefly represented the New Orleans Pelicans last season, appearing in three games and averaging 7.7 points, 1.7 assists, and 1.3 rebounds.

The 1.75 m guard was also a member of the Washington Wizards, Denver Nuggets, Los Angeles Lakers, Cleveland Cavaliers, Boston Celtics, Phoenix Suns, and Sacramento Kings in the past.

He was selected in the 2016 and 2017 NBA All-Star games.
