    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">DALLAS (Ticker) - The Dallas Mavericks on Thursday signed second-round draft pick forward Nick Fazekas.

    Terms of the contract were not disclosed.

    The Mavericks selected Fazekas as the 34th overall pick in the 2007 draft.

    He was a part of the Mavericks' summer league team that played in Las Vegas and Salt Lake City. In Las Vegas, he averaged 6.6 points and 4.4 rebounds in 17.4 minutes in five games.

    The 6-11, 235-pound Fazekas finished his four-year career at Nevada as the school's all-time leading scorer with 2,464 points, and shot blocker with 192 blocks. He was named the WAC Player of the Year three times (2005, 2006, 2007) and was a consensus Second Team All-American as a senior when he averaged 20.4 points and 11.1 rebounds. </div>

    I'm guessing he'll end up being an Austin Croshere type player. Should be a good backup for Dirk though.

    Idk I think he reminds me so much of a young Raef Lafrentz. Hopefully he'll be a good backup for a Dirk, but if he can't get physical we can now throw in big Brandon Bass.
