Fazekas back in familiar territory
Tuesday, Oct. 16, 2007 @ 11:37 pm
Nick Fazekas took the floor in Las Cruces, New Mexico, on Tuesday to take on a Reggie Theus-coached team in a hostile environment.
What, you thought those days were over?
Not with the beautiful fate of preseason NBA basketball. Fazekas returned to the House that Reggie Built as a rookie power forward for the Dallas Mavericks, and Theus was prowling the familiar sideline for the Sacramento Kings.
Fazekas got the better of the deal - he scored eight points on 4 of 6 shooting and the Mavs won 101-99.
Fazekas, a second round draft pick in June, is fighting to make the Mavericks roster as Dirk Nowitzki’s backup and avoid the hell of the NBA Developmental League.
Fazekas is 12 of 22 from the field with 15 rebounds coming off the bench in four preseason games.
