There will be a familiar face in the Nets practice facility on Saturday. Ex-Net Bostjan Nachbar will take the NBA up on its offer to use team gyms for voluntary workouts.

This doesn’t necessarily mean Nachbar will be back with the Nets, but the athletic small forward is returning to the NBA.

After playing in Europe the past three years, a stronger, more mature Nachbar, whose nickname is Boki, is hoping to join an established team team that will give him an opportunity to play regularly.

“I’m sure there are teams that could use what I can do,” Nachbar said Thursday. “I’m confident over time it’s going to show I still can play and help a team that plays for high goals.”

Nachbar’s agent, Marc Cornstein, estimated he’s spoken to 10-12 teams about his client. Among them are the Nets, Knicks, Celtics, Sixers, Pistons, Hornets and Spurs.
