Isaiah Thomas Net Worth and salary: Isaiah Thomas is an American professional basketball player who has a net worth of $16 million dollars. Isaiah Jamar Thomas was born in Tacoma, Washington in February 1989. Contrary to popular assumption, Isaiah is not the son of Detroit Pistons Hall of Fame point guard Isiah Thomas. According to legend, his father James was a lifelong Lakers fan and made a bet with a friend that if the Pistons beat the Lakers in the 1989 NBA Championship, he would name is son after Isiah Thomas. The Pistons won in a four game sweep. Per his wife Tina’s request they changed the spelling to the biblical “Isaiah” as opposed to “Isiah”.
Thomas played at Curtis Senior High School and South School in Washington. As a junior he averaged over 30 points a game. Thomas then played college basketball at the University of Washington. In 2009 he was selected to the All-Pac-10 Second Team and to the All-Pac-10 First Team in 2010 and 2011.

In the 2013-2014 season Thomas averaged better than 20 points and 6 assists per game. In July 2014 Thomas joined the Phoenix Suns in a sign-and-trade deal.
