Jameel Warney on his NBA call-up: ‘It’s like a dream right now’

Not only did the 24-year-old make his NBA debut last night for the Mavericks, scoring five points and grabbing four boards in eight minutes, but as part of his 10-day call-up, Warney will get to make two trips to New York City for games against the Knicks on Tuesday and Nets on Saturday. That’s a homecoming for the New Brunswick, N.J. native. He gets to spend his first week in the NBA with his loved ones.

“If you’re one of my true friends,” Warney joked, “you’ll probably go to both of them.”

Warney’s a true character, which you can quickly tell if you follow him on Twitter.
