 **Q: On working out for his hometown NBA team:**\\
-Fitzgerald: It was a lot of fun. It was a good opportunity to get my name out there a little bit and see how it goes ... All the stuff we've done here I've done during my four years at Marquette. It was a little nerve-racking, but it was fun.

 **Q: On his chances of latching on to an NBA team following the draft:**\\
-Fitzgerald: We'll see (if) it comes. If not, it's fine, I'll go to Europe and get better and try again next year ... I'm just happy to play and get paid for it; it's a pretty nice job.

+**Q: On Fitzgerald, whom he coached at Marquette:**\\
-Sichting: Well Dan was a real good college player. His senior year he had some injury problems, so he probably didn't have the kind of senior year he wanted to have. But he's a great guy, a local kid here, I think his parents (have been) season ticket holders for the Wolves for a while, so they are big Timberwolves fans. Dan will most probably end up in Europe some place, but he was a solid college player and a great guy and it was fun to coach him.
