During a 132-114 loss to the Rio Grande Valley Vipers at home Tuesday, the Stockton Kings welcomed back a familiar face.
Stockton acquired the 25-year-old Eric Mika following a return from the Chinese Basketball Association where he played for the Xinjiang Guanghui Flying Tigers.
In seven games in China, Mika averaged 19.9 points on 56.1% shooting, 11.7 rebounds and 1.6 assists. Just prior to signing with the Flying Tigers, Mika made noise in Stockton with impressive play backed up by even better averages.
Before leaving to China, Mika put up 19.7 points on 54.
