Will he be able to crack the starting lineup this season? Marc D'Amico of Celtics.com doesn't think so:

"There’s no doubt that Thomas has the talent to start for the Celtics. In fact, I believe he’s going to lead this team in scoring for the second consecutive season. However, my gut tells me that he still comes off the bench. Why, you might ask? Well, I think Brad Stevens loves having Thomas and his offensive firepower enter the game off the bench. It’s a bona fide spark plug. There is certainly a chance that Thomas could convince Stevens during training camp to change his mind, but I think the coach is comfortable with and excited by the notion of bringing Thomas’ electric scoring abilities off the bench."
