Campazzo on his return to the team: “The NBA is about always being available”

The only Argentine player who plays in the NBA, Facundo Campazzo, returned to play after not being taken into account said that the NBA basketball “is about always being available”, even if the coach does not consider him to be a starter. The NBA is about always being available. I knew that sooner or later I was going to enjoy this opportunity,” said the Cordovan in a press conference after the game between Denver Nuggets and Boston Celtics (102-108) at the TD Garden in Boston.De this way, the Argentine regained the confidence of coach Michael Malone and played 29 minutes, after several games in which he was not used. This situation triggered rumors that he could be transferred to another team, in the usual closing of passes in February.

Campazzo also contributed 14 points (11 of them in the first period), 4 rebounds and 3 assists: “Monte (Morris) was out with injury. In case the coach (Michael Malone) needed me, I was ready and I had to deliver that energy in the beginning,” he explained. In this sense, he added: “The idea is to collaborate from the place that touches me. If I have to applaud and encourage my colleagues on the bench, I will. If I have to come in I will try to make it the best possible way,” and concluded: “I know it was crazy weeks, but I tried to stay calm. I sought to put my energy into what was within my reach, into what I could control. You always want to play, but it’s the NBA that gives you its chances.”
