Watch: Isaiah Thomas gets ovation from Nuggets fans in debut

Isaiah Thomas received a nice welcome from Denver Nuggets fans ahead of his debut.
Thomas made his season debut on Wednesday night after missing around 11 months of action due to his hip injury. Prior to entering the Nuggets’ home game against the Sacramento Kings after a timeout, Thomas received an ovation.

Denver entered the game as the No. 2 team in the West. Whether Thomas is able to prove himself as effective and a seamless fit after such a long absence remains to be seen, but it’s nice to have him back playing.
