When People Thought Isaiah Thomas’ Draft Announcement Was An April Fools’ Joke

 

Isaiah Thomas literally started from the bottom but ended up making his doubters eat their words.

Not only was he selected 60th overall (last pick) in the 2011 NBA Draft by the Sacramento Kings, when he declared for the NBA Draft on April 1, 2011, people thought it was an April Fools’ joke. That’s what Thomas revealed in an Instagram story a couple of years ago, when he was with the Boston Celtics.

His 5’9″ stature may have had people concerned with his professional basketball plans.

As we all know, Thomas ended up becoming a two-time All-Star and a fan favorite in Boston.
