Report: Nets extend $5.99 million QO to Cam Thomas to make him RFA
HoopsHype NBA insider Michael Scotto reported on Sunday that the Nets extended a $5.99 million qualifying offer to guard Cam Thomas, officially making a restricted free-agent heading into the 2025 offseason. Now that Thomas is a restricted free-agent, Brooklyn has the right to match any offer sheet that any other team offers him in free-agency as teams might seek his scoring talents for next season.

Thomas, 23, is coming off a 2024-25 season in which he averaged 24.0 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 3.8 assists per game while shooting 43.8% from the field and 34.9% from three-point land. However, Thomas heads into free-agency having played just 25 games last season as he dealt with multiple bouts of a left hamstring strain, the last of which ended his season in March.
There have been various reports concerning Thomas and how much money he is expected to command in free-agency during a summer in which most NBA teams don't have much money to spend on free-agents. Per NetsDaily, Thomas is expected to command around $25 million per season in free-agency, whether that comes from the Nets or from another team via an offer sheet.
Thomas should command plenty of attention in free-agency as he is regarded as one of the better free-agents on the market while having a scoring talent that every team can use on the floor. The Nets would be able to offer Thomas a contract around $25 million per year and if Brooklyn feels as committed to Thomas as he does to them, he should have a new deal coming sometime soon.

Patton Kizzire gets the luckiest bounce of the 3M Open on shot into the water
There were many birdies scored at the 3M Open on Friday via the power and precision of some of the world's best golfers. And then there's what Patton Kizzire did. On the 18th hole of Minnesota's TPC Twin Cities, Kizzire hit a 320-yard drive and still had a 233 yards to go to the hole, with a water hazard in the way. Kizzire opted to go directly for the green and hit what should have been a round-killing shot into the water. Fortunately, fate and 3M's marketing budget got in the way. Kizzire's second shot bounced off the 3M Open's floating logo in the water and landed in the rough next to the green. Instead of taking a penalty stroke, Kizzire was a chip and a putt away from a birdie on the par 5, which he accomplished with much less drama. Here's how the whole thing played out: That hole pushed Kizzire to 1-under as he moved to the front nine, but he failed to improve his score enough to avoid the cut. He finished the day at 1-under, well behind the 5-under cut line. He's made the cut in only five of 19 PGA Tour events this season and is currently ranked 171st on the Official World Golf Rankings. He'll at least have some memories from the tournament though.
