Cavaliers Rookie Waited Two Games — Then Lit Up a Comeback
Meleek Thomas scored 16 points in his NBA debut, helping the Cavaliers erase a 15-point deficit and beat Minnesota in overtime. Meleek Thomas, a 20-year-old guard for the Cleveland Cavaliers, made his NBA debut in a win over the Minnesota Timberwolves on October 26. Despite sitting out the first two regular-season games, Thomas scored 16 points on 6-of-10 shooting, including four three-pointers, giving Cleveland an unexpected scoring spark. His performance was particularly encouraging as he had not yet earned a place in coach Kenny Atkinson's regular-year rotation. Despite not being fully qualified for a permanent role, Thomas's performance provided an encouraging sign for the team's supporting cast. The Cavaliers improved to 2-1 with the victory, while Minnesota fell to 3-1 despite Anthony Edwards scoring a game-high 47 points.
