Brooklyn Nets Grades: Cam Thomas Scores 40 in Loss to Spurs

The Brooklyn Nets (0-3) played against the San Antonio Spurs (3-0) in their second road trip of the season. Despite missing some rookie forwards, the Nets had guard Cam Thomas available, who almost led a comeback. The Nets lost to the Spurs 118-107, with Thomas scoring 40 points and Michael Porter Jr. adding 16 points, six rebounds, four assists, and two steals.

Victor Wembanyama of the Spurs scored 31 points, 14 rebounds, and six blocks, helping the Spurs remain undefeated. The Nets struggled, with Saraf facing scoring challenges, Thomas playing through a nasal fracture, Mann showing defensive impact, Porter contributing efficiently, Claxton facing a tough matchup, Wilson making a solid comeback, Williams struggling with shooting, Clowney adapting to NBA play, and Sharpe improving after early foul trouble.

Despite the loss, the Nets showed resilience and individual efforts from players like Thomas, Porter, and others. The team will look to regroup and improve in future games.
