NEW YORK (AP) — [Cam Thomas](https://www.tsn.ca/nba/player/cam-thomas/555929), the [Brooklyn Nets](https://www.tsn.ca/nba/team-page/brooklyn-nets/252)' 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 can become a free agent after this season.
