Thomas missed the first 36 games of the season while recovering from a hip injury that dogged him throughout the 2016-17 campaign. As a result, the Cleveland Cavaliers closely monitored Thomas' minutes before shipping him to the Lakers at the trade deadline.
In 32 total appearances so far this season, Thomas is averaging 15.2 points and 4.8 assists.
The Lakers have Lonzo Ball available to shoulder the load with Thomas out, but don't be surprised to see Tyler Ennis pick up a few more minutes as well.
