Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary

Matt Thomas was born in 1994 in Decatur, Illinois. The 6-foot-4 shooting guard is the son of Martha and Greg Thomas. Thomas played prep ball at Onalaska High School in Wisconsin. After both his junior and senior high school seasons, Thomas was named a first-team all-state player by both the Associated Press and WBCA Division 2. During his junior season in 2012, Thomas led Onalaska to a State Championship and averaged 21.3 points, 5.3 rebounds, 2.5 steals and 2.1 steals per contest. For his collegiate hoops career, Thomas choose to attend Iowa State. Before signing with the Raptors as a rookie in 2019, Thomas played two seasons abroad. Both seasons were in the Spanish Liga ACB, first with Obradoiro and then Valencia. Thomas' nicknames include "Mr. 99%" and "The Iceman." Fans can follow him on Twitter (@Theiceman_21). Matt Thomas played four seasons of college ball at Iowa State from 2013 to 2017. During his freshman season, he appeared in all 36 games for the Cyclones with 15 starts. He made 44 three-pointers that year, the second most in school history for a freshman. Thomas' playing time decreased slightly as a sophomore, as he averaged 15 minutes per contest over 32 games while failing to record a start all season long. During his junior season, Thomas' three-point accuracy improved to 44 percent and that landed Thomas back in the starting lineup -- he then registered 35 starts during his senior season (2016-17) and averaged 12.3 points, 3.9 rebounds and 2.5 made three-pointers per contest. The 6-foot-4 shooting guard then went on to play two seasons in the Spanish Liga ACB. His first season abroad was with Obradoiro, where he averaged 15.4 points and shot 46 percent from behind the arc. He then signed with Valencia for the 2018-19 season, and he helped them capture the 2019 EuroCup title. Thomas then signed with the Toronto Raptors ahead of the 2019-20 NBA season.

ANALYSIS
The 28-year-old Thomas has been available on the open market since July, after the Bulls declined his $2.09 million qualifying offer following the 2021-22 season. After weighing his options, Thomas is opting to return to Europe, where he spent the first two years of his professional career before making the move to the NBA in 2019-20. In his third NBA season in 2021-22, Thomas appeared in 40 games for Chicago and averaged 4.0 points, 1.3 rebounds and 0.9 three-pointers in 11.5 minutes per contest.

2019 Fantasy Outlook
A lethal marksman from distance over his last four seasons at multiple levels, Thomas joined the Raptors this offseason on a three-year, $4.2 million contract after spending his first two professional campaigns in Spain. The 25-year-old became a starter beginning with his junior year at Iowa State back in the 2015-16 campaign, which coincided with his blossoming as a three-point shooter. Thomas finished his college career with success rates of 43.2 (as a junior) and 44.5 percent (as a senior) from distance. He followed that up by draining 45.9 and 48.5 percent of his shots from behind the arc in his pair of overseas campaigns, while also shooting a lights-out 51.1 percent overall last season. Having allowed both Danny Green and Delon Wright to depart this summer via free agency and trade, respectively, the Raptors will hope to make up for their absences with Thomas, who profiles as the likely first or second shooting guard off the bench behind projected starter Norman Powell. That could add up to a solid, consistent allotment of playing time for Thomas against second-unit defenders, which in turn could lead to some impressive per-minute contributions in offensive categories if he proves capable of replicating the elite level of accuracy he particularly demonstrated in Spain.
