LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Milwaukee Bucks requested waivers on guard Cam Thomas and converted forward/center Pete Nance, who had been on a two-way deal, to a multi-year standard NBA contract. Nance, 26, entered Monday night’s game with the Los Angeles Clippers having averaged 4. 5 points, 2.

2 rebounds and 12. 1 minutes in 37 games while playing on a two-way deal. The 24-year-old Thomas signed with the Bucks on Feb.

8 after the Brooklyn Nets had waived him. Thomas scored 34 points in a 116-108 victory at Orlando in his Bucks debut and had 27 points in a 139-118 win at New Orleans nine days later, but his role eventually decreased. He didn’t play at all in back-to-back games with Indiana and Cleveland last week.

This move continues what’s been a difficult season for Thomas, who had scored 22. 5 points per game in 2023-24 and 24 points per game in 2024-25 while playing for Brooklyn. Thomas was averaging 15.

6 points in 24 games with Brooklyn this season before the Nets waived him. He averaged 10. 7 points and 16.
