The Dallas Mavericks made it official last Thursday, signing veteran center/forward Kevin Willis for the remainder of the season. Willis, 44, originally signed a 10-day contract with the Mavs on April 2 and made his first appearance in an NBA game for the first time since the 2004-05 season. I couldn't help but wonder how Willis's acquaintances responded when he told them his intention to return to the NBA after not playing in the league for so long. I think it would be something akin to what Arnold says here in this clip from Diff'rent Strokes, a show that was on the air during Willis' NBA rookie year (1984-85).
