Sixers' Merry Go 'Round lands on Thomas

PHILADELPHIA – The Sixers latest in-season tryout will be swingman Adonis Thomas, who was signed  to a 10-day contract on Monday. 

Thomas is the 44th call-up from NBA Development League this season.

In 34 games for the Springfield Armor of the D-League, Thomas averaged 17 points, including 25 ppg over the final four games.  He also shot 47 percent from 3-point range, which placed him third in the league.

Earlier this season Thomas was given a look by the Orlando Magic and appeared in four games.

An early entry candidate for the 2013 NBA Draft following his sophomore season at Memphis, Thomas was an All-Conference USA third-team selection and C-USA All-Tournament performer in his final season with the Tigers.

Thomas was also the state of Tennessee Gatorade Player of the Year in 2011 and appeared in the McDonald’s All-American Game, the Jordan Brand Classic and the Nike Hoops Summit.
