TERRE HAUTE, Ind. – Indiana State head basketball coach Josh Schertz announced the addition of Micah Thomas (Oklahoma City, Okla./Northwest Florida State College/Putnam City North HS) on Thursday.
 
"We are excited to add Micah to this group as he brings a really high skill level to our program at the guard position," Schertz said. "Two things we value at the highest level are feel and shooting and we think his biggest strengths align well with what our system demands. On top of that he's capable of guarding his position and will be coming in with a year of high-level college basketball experience under his belt."
 
Thomas saw action in 21 games, starting in 20 games for the Raiders. He led the team with 13.3 points per game and 3.5 assists per game while grabbing 2.3 rebounds per contest. The 6-foot guard shot at a clip of 44.6 percent from the field, 34.7 percent from range and 86.3 percent from the charity stripe.
 
An Oklahoma City native, Thomas scored in double-digits in 13 games while scoring 20 or more points in three outings. Thomas scored a season-high 29 points on 10-of-15 shooting during a 74-65 win over Florida Southwestern State.
 
Thomas scored over 2,000 points, recorded 500 assists, and reached the state tournament all four years at Putnam City North High School. He was crowned State Tournament MVP and State Champion in 2018 and led the Panthers 2019 team to a State Runner-Up highlighted by a career-high 44 points (13-of-19) in the semifinals round. Thomas earned accolades including the state of Oklahoma's highest honor as the Super 5 Player of the Year while also being tabbed as the Big 10 Player of the Year, Big All-City Player of the Year, and 6A All-State.
