Isaiah Thomas Signs With Lagardere Unlimited

Isaiah Thomas has officially signed with Dan Fegan and Byron Irvin of Lagardere Unlimited.  The news was first reported yesterday by Ryan Feldman of The Hoops Report.  Fegan is also representing talented Brazilian basketball player Lucas Nogueira, while Irvin is representing Jacob Pullen of Kansas State, who may end up going undrafted.

Thomas ran the point for the Washington Huskies this past season.  He will probably get criticized for his height (5’9), but he proved that his speed and ball handling can quickly quiet any doubters.  Hopefully he does not take a beating for his very active Tweeting (@Isaiah_Thomas2).  I do not doubt that he is putting in tremendous effort in his workouts, but we all know that certain owners do not understand how athletes find the time for any pleasure.

Best of luck to Fegan, Irvin, and the rest of the crew at Lagardere.

Update: I have been informed that Thomas signed specifically with Irvin at Lagardere, which is the same firm where Fegan works; however, Fegan had little to no involvement in Thomas’ signing with Lagardere.
