Brandon Bass, James Singleton enjoy career highs vs. Kings

DALLAS — Brandon Bass and James Singleton’s lockers are right next to each
other, so the two enjoyed some good-natured ribbing at each other’s expense
after Saturday night’s game.
Might as well. Their play a few quarters before gave the two reason to smile.
Bass and Singleton both tallied career highs in points, 20 and 19,
respectively, in the Mavericks’ 116-95 victory over the Sacramento Kings on
Saturday. Both played the entire second quarter, with Bass collecting 16 of
his points and Singleton claiming 12 of his final tally.
Not only did they help extend the Mavericks lead, which grew to 70-50 at the
half, but they also gave the Mavs’ starters some extra rest.
“I had hoped that we could find a way to rest some of our starters who had
had heavy, heavy minutes (against Houston),” coach Rick Carlisle said. “I
wasn’t anticipating what happened in the second quarter but it was great for
us. It just got our bench into it more.”
Bass, who went 7 for 9 from the field, had no idea his second quarter was so
productive.
“It definitely felt good,” he said. “I just try to be ready every night
and take what the defense gives me. (The Mavericks), they gave me my
opportunity to play, and just been trying to build on it. That’s what you
see.”
Singleton, meanwhile, said he’s used practice time to avoid rust.
“With practice you get great habits, and when you get to the game it carries
over,” he said. “When I’m in the game, I have to perform as soon as I’m
on the floor.”
The opportunity was there. Bass and Singleton were just two guys who grabbed
their share of it.
“(Bass) played well last night and tonight and he’s had a really solid year
for us. He’s making gradual, steady progress,” Carlisle said. “I love
singleton. He’s always ready, and in a back to back situation, you’re
looking for energy, He earned the right to stay out there.”
