As he stood on a new, brilliant-blue basketball court outside of Mission Arlington on Tuesday, Josh Green was swept back to his homeland.
“I grew up in Australia,” he said. “and I feel like outdoor courts are always the way to go. That’s where I always ended up after school. It’s great to be a part of it.”
The Mavericks unveiled the new court in Arlington with Green holding court, quite literally, as the nets were cut and the first clinic was given on the new sports court.
It is the 32nd court dedication the Mavericks and Mavs Foundation have been a part of over the decades, including in January when they christened the new gym at Cedar Crest Community Center in Oak Cliff.
