Former Kansas University guard Billy Thomas will play at the Indiana Pacers’ rookie league camp this week in Indianapolis with hopes of making the squad’s summer team roster.

The 6-foot-4 Thomas led the Greenville Groove to the first NBDL championship in 2001-02. In the postseason, he averaged 24 points a game, 10 points higher than his regular season average.

Barring a trade, odds are slim of Thomas sticking with the Pacers. Their GM recently indicated the squad had 13 players under contract.
