According to Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium, the Milwaukee Bucks recently conducted a workout session with Isaiah Thomas in Las Vegas.

The Bucks are emerging from a lackluster season even after acquiring Damian Lillard. Despite his career being past its prime, Thomas remains a potential asset for any team seeking additional depth and experience.
His ability to contribute as a point guard could offer valuable support, particularly as teams strategize their roster configurations heading into the upcoming season. As a backup point guard behind Lillard, Thomas could be an intriguing addition to the roster.
