Niz od šest poraza je prekinut i Nikola je mogao na miru provesti prvi Божић u Americi.
Uzurpiraćemo prostor i malo mesta dati povratku na teren imeњaku Nikolinom. Pekovic played for the first time since March 11. The oft-injured big man had surgery to address irritation in his right Achilles over the summer, a last-ditch effort to try to solve the foot issues that have plagued him for the last few years.
The fan favorite received a standing ovation upon entering the game and he quickly converted a layup to get rolling. He capped the first half with his patented move — a baby hook over his left shoulder to give him eight points in 7 minutes.
„It feels good just to be out there with the guys,“ Pekovic said. „It was not that bad, like I expected. I expected it was going to be way worse.“
