Dirk Nowitzki (44) was given a great honor! The German basketball player really took off after moving to the USA and is now one of the most successful athletes of all time. But time has left physical marks: Among other things, he can no longer play football with his children – on some days he can hardly move. Nonetheless: Dirk’s commitment could now pay off again, because he now has the opportunity to be included in the “Hall of Fame”.
As the keepers of the Hall of Fame announced on Wednesday, they could Dirks Achievements will soon be rewarded: The basketball idol will most likely be inducted into the NBA’s “Hall of Fame” next year – because he has received a nomination. In 2019 he ended his active career after 21 seasons in the North American professional league with the Dallas Mavericks. To date, he is the sixth-best points-scorer in league history and the most prolific scorer born outside of the United States.
But that’s not the only honor that Dirk could be proven. His old team had already announced that a Nowitzki statue would be built in front of the arena in Dallas. This will be revealed next Sunday. Also will Dirks shirt number, which he wore for years, can no longer be assigned.
