If Tyler Herro is hoping to agree to a contract extension with the Miami Heat before the start of the 2025-26 NBA season, he can't be happy with what just transpired between the Brooklyn Nets and Cam Thomas.
Instead of agreeing to a long-term extension with the Nets, Thomas opted to sign a one-year qualifying offer with the team. Could that have been done so Thomas could take command of his future? Sure. However, the bigger reason why Thomas had to "settle" for such a move revolves around the idea that the Nets didn't want to give him a particularly long or expensive contract extension.
