Las Vegas — Khyri Thomas is ready for the challenge.
After his first Summer League game, he admitted he had some nerves. After the first minute or two, they were gone, though.
Thomas’ play on defense was one of the few flashes in the Pistons’ 90-63 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks on Friday night, but he left an impression on his teammates and the coaching staff with his intensity and defensive prowess in his debut.
“You saw Khyri the first play of the game get a deflection, so it shows what he can do defensively,” forward Henry Ellenson said.
