Rodrigue Beaubois ('88) made last night his career-game in the NBA. Let's take a look to the NBA.COM game story.

-So you had Rodrigue Beaubois on your fantasy team, right? The Dallas Mavericks rookie had a career night on Saturday, scoring 40 points to lead the Mavericks to a 111-90 dismantling of the Golden State Warriors. "We see it a lot in practice," Mavs forward Dirk Nowitzki said. "He's a very, very explosive scorer. He's long. When he makes his shots, he's tough to guard because he's so good at penetrating. He's got a great floater, he can finish in the paint. When he's on like that, he's a tough matchup for anyone." Beaubois has been coming on of late, averaging 15.7 points per game in March. He had seven consecutive games in double-figures earlier this month, including back-to-back games of 22 and 24 against the Kings and Bulls, respectively. However, he was scoreless in two of four games since then, playing less than a minute against Boston and just one minute against Portland in Dallas' previous game. "I felt great," the 6-foot guard said. "I felt I couldn't miss so I kept shooting." 

French guard played 30 minutes coming from the bench, with 40 points (6/11 twos, 9/11 threes and 1/1 ft), 8 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 blocks. Check this game's video.
