Cam Thomas, the Brooklyn Nets' leading scorer, is expected to miss the rest of the season with a strained left hamstring.
The Nets said Saturday that Thomas was injured during their loss at Chicago on Thursday, when he had his first career double-double, getting 24 points and a career-best 10 assists. The team said it was unlikely he could appropriately recover with the amount of time left in the season.
Brooklyn has less than a month left before the regular season ends April 13.
Thomas averaged 24 points, with a team-high six 30-point games, but was limited to just 25 appearances. He missed 37 games with an injury to the hamstring after initially hurting it in November.
Thomas is set to hit restricted free agency this summer.
