It happened extremely fast, but Tony Romo is apparently coming out of retirement.
To play basketball.
In the NBA.
For the Dallas Mavericks.
Maybe.
Romo will be on the bench — in uniform — when the Mavs play their regular-season home finale at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday at American Airlines Center against the Denver Nuggets.
The game will be the Mavs’ way of honoring Romo, who spent his entire 14-year career with the Dallas Cowboys before announcing his departure from the NFL on Tuesday.
A source said Romo is not expected to play, but the Mavs have not indicated whether he will or will not.
