Isaiah Thomas has two sons: Jaiden and James Thomas. In 2016, Thomas and his longtime girlfriend, Kayla, got married. Jaiden is the son the couple have together while James is Isaiah’s son from a previous relationship. Isaiah’s father’s name is also James. Isaiah’s father named him after former NBA superstar, Isiah Thomas.
Isaiah got his name because his father lost a bet
Isaiah’s father is a Los Angeles Lakers fan. In 1989, the Lakers played the Detroit Pistons in the NBA Finals. James Thomas bet his friend that the Lakers would beat the Pistons. Detroit ended up sweeping Los Angeles so James had to name his son after Pistons guard, Isiah Thomas. We’d love to see Isaiah play for the Lakers or Pistons in the future.

Isaiah played great with Wade. He made the NBA veteran look 10 years younger. That’s not the only good news for the Cavs. Derrick Rose and Iman Shumpert are looking to return soon. Tyronn Lue says that D. Rose isn’t limping anymore and Shump “is always healing faster than he’s supposed to.”
