Things aren’t all bad when it comes to LSU men’s basketball past, present, or future.

Former Tiger Cam Thomas scored a career-best 44 points last night and his Brooklyn Nets needed every last point to hold off the Washington Wizards 125-123.

Thomas did his damage in 29 minutes off the bench and scored 19 points in the fourth quarter. Thomas helped Brooklyn overcome a 23-point deficit. He shot 16-23 and added six rebounds plus five assists. In short, it was the best game of his young NBA career. At 21-years-old, he became the third youngest player in NBA history to score 40+ points off the bench.
