Dirk Nowitzki

Dirk Nowitzki is the greatest Maverick of all time, transforming both the franchise and the power forward position. Drafted in 1998, the German superstar spent 21 seasons in Dallas, redefining the stretch-four with his silky jumper and patented one-legged fadeaway. Dirk carried the Mavs to consistent playoff contention and became a fixture in All-Star games, ultimately surpassing 30,000 career points. His crowning achievement came in 2011, when he led Dallas to its first NBA championship, defeating the star-studded Miami Heat in a Finals performance marked by toughness and clutch scoring. Nowitzki’s loyalty to Dallas — never leaving despite opportunities — made him synonymous with the franchise, while his humility endeared him to fans across the league. His jersey retirement and statue outside the American Airlines Center cement his legacy not only as the Mavericks’ icon but also as one of the NBA’s all-time greats.
