Isaiah Thomas has faced profound loss with the passing of two sisters, Chyna Thomas, the younger, and LaQuisha, the older.

Both sisters played essential roles in his life, and as a close-knit family, their passing would hurt him forever.

According to the reports, Isiah’s younger sister was just 22 years old at the time of her fatal car accident in 2017.

So, Chyna was born around 1995, six years younger than the current superstar player of the Phoenix Suns, Isaiah Jamar Thomas.

She was younger but brought joy to those around her, especially her brother, who had a good bond with her.

Despite further analysis, we got no information regarding her education and profession.

Besides, Isaiah Thomas’s elder sister,  also passed away just a few days ago, on November 21.

Baldtrip’s life was significantly less crowded than Chyna’s, so we know little about her background and family.

Further digging into her life, we discovered her Instagram handle, but she had kept it private, making accessing information inside it impossible.

However, we know that Thomas’s siblings were born to parents James Thomas and Tina Baldtrip. The Thomas family belongs to the African American heritage, which is common in basketball.

Reports suggest that there were three siblings, two of whom have already passed. Isaiah might also have other siblings who have yet to appear in the media.

Since he has posted about everything and everyone on Instagram, it sounds unusual for him not to post about his other sibling.
