NBA 2K18: 10 Specific Player Characteristics We Need To See

The small point guard from the Boston Celtics has an enormous heart and nowhere was it more evident then during fourth quarters of various NBA games during the season. Whenever he would get into a rhythm, I.T. would point to an imaginary watch on his hand, showing that it was his time to take over a game.

Thomas scored 9.8 points per game in the forth quarter alone - the second highest average in the NBA in the past 20 years. Only one player was better in that regard and - spoiler alert - he's on this list as well.

NBA 2K has an on-fire icon similar to these old, glorious NBA Jam arcade games, but when it comes to Isaiah, it should be permanent, making him the player to guard at all cost in the fourth. Barring poor shot selection, putting Thomas in the fourth quarter should guarantee your team a lot of points.
