"The first chapter of Peja Stojakovic's stay in Dallas featured only one 3-point basket in six attempts. But he played almost 20 minutes in his first NBA floor time in more than two months and is eager to take another crack at it on the Mavs' upcoming road trip.

Stojakovic was 3-for-9 from the floor in the Mavs' 99-96 victory over Cleveland. His playing time came in the first three quarters and included eight points and five rebounds.

The 33-year-old veteran said the shots he missed were too good."
