Argentina and Latin America added great news on Tuesday with its formalization signing of Facundo Campazzo to the Dallas Mavericks. After two seasons with the Denver Nuggets, the Córdoba point guard fulfilled his desire to stay in the NBA and agreed to join the Texans for one season, where he will try to earn a spot in Luka Doncic’s team’s rotation.
His arrival came on the same day as the start of the Regular Phase, one day before the date set for Jason Kidd’s season premiere. This will be the same Wednesday, October 19 against the Phoenix Suns, one of the top rivals in the West, who they beat in the last Playoffs. And although Faku is already with the team, his presence on the field will have to wait.
Why won’t Campazzo be able to play in Dallas’ debut against the Phoenix Suns?
It’s not a matter of physicality or fitting into the team, but that the “problem” is administrative. Faku is still waiting for his work visa and, without that process being resolved, he cannot play with the Mavericks.

When could Campazzo make his Dallas Mavericks debut?
As he was able to discover The SportingNewsthe visa must they arrive in two or three days. So there is a possibility that I can say attend the second meeting of the season for the Mavs, which will be on Saturday, October 22nd, at home against the Memphis Grizzlies. If he doesn’t get there, the next chances would be a few days later against the Pelicans or Nets.
The thing is, it’s not something that will take long, so sooner or later we will see Faku on the floor with the Mavericks.
