Fazekas to return, signs that trade imminent

The Mavericks just announced that they've recalled Nick Fazekas from Tulsa in the D-League. With Devin Harris, Jerry Stackhouse, Deaven George, DeSagana Diop and Maurice Ager, who was sent to Tulsa the other day, all involved in the pending trade for Jason Kidd, this makes the deal look all the more impending.

And really, we already knew that. The teams are in late-stage negotiations, although the final deal might not be done until tomorrow.
