Thomas is not 2nd in usage, he is 1st since he has been playing at 32.5% the next closest is Jokic who is at 27.8%. Thomas is the worst player on offense and on defense for anybody that has played in 7 games for the Nuggets the last 2 years. He is putting up 9.7 ppg, 1.3 rebounds, and 1.6 assists with 2.0 turnovers a game on 47.9% TS%. All of those stats and advanced stats put Thomas as worse than Nick Young, who Malone played 4 games. Malone has been complaining about Thomas not sharing the ball and being selfish for over a week yet Thomas is still getting his minutes. The only reason Thomas is playing is that he is close to Malone, and it is time TC steps in and cuts Thomas, it is the only answer if Malone is going to continue to play him.
