Lazar just came into game for Oklahoma City against Mavericks

There was a timeout after one defensive trip, but Mavs commentator said he should change his name to Laser.

Played the last couple of minutes of the half.  Drove from the perimeter to the hoop twice.  First time he was fouled by Hagood and made both free throws.  The second time Perkins tried to help with a pick and was called for an offensive foul prior to Hayward laying it in.

Team defense looked terrible while he was in.  Dominique Jones, who Lazar really outplayed in his last matchup with USF, was having a great game coming off the scout team last year.

Hopefully he will get a few more minutes second half, and during the condensed season.

Final note:

came in again end of 3rd quarter and played the whole 4th quarter.

The good:
Drew a 2nd foul (non-shooting this time)
Right after coming off the bench at the end of the 3rd looked nice draining a shot from the top of the key
Grabbed a defensive rebound
Popped out nicely to contest a 3 on one occasion, and on another cut Dominique Jones off nicely on baseline

The bad:
Backed his defender down in low post but help defender rejected him badly
Took a bad angle on a pass that let Jones get to the basket on another play
15 OKC players played, and Lazar's -16 was the worst point differential of any player
