Tony Romo being a “Maverick for a Day” is obviously just an honorary gesture as he has no business checking into an actual NBA game. However! It looks like Tony made his case for PT during today’s Mavericks shootaround by nailing a jumper right in Dorian Finney-Smith’s face:

You laugh, but Caron Butler really believes Tony could’ve played professional basketball (via ESPN):
“Believe it or not, man, when we were in the prime of our careers, I used to always talk about it: [Romo] could have easily been a professional basketball player,” Caron Butler told ESPN. “And a lot of people were like, ‘Man, you’re crazy for saying that,’ but Tony could shoot. He could handle the ball. He had a knack for scoring, man, he really did.
Proof that Tony is more than another white guy who shoots threes:
