Patrick O'Bryant's first NBA game

[Da Coach]

Golden State played an exhibition game at home against Efes Pilsen, a Euroleague team from Turkey, and won 120-66.
I can't find any stats to report, because the NBA apparently doesn't post box scores from exhibitions that involve teams outside the NBA teams.
As has been noted before, coach Don Nelson does not like to play rookies much, and he also likes to play wthout a true center. Patrick O'Bryant got into the game for the last 5 minutes, but that's better than Adonal Foyle. Foyle was Golden State's starting center last year and is signed to an $8.12 million salary this year. He did not get off the bench in the exhibition game last night.

If anyone can find a box score, post it or let me know.

Thanks, AV. What is your impression of how much playing time POB will get? Does he like Nelson's style?
