Dirk Nowitzki

“How can the answer to this question not be Dirk Nowitzki? Coming off a brand new contract, it feels like the pressure is on Dirk to remain (or return) in his current form and lead the Mavericks to another playoff run. With a good supporting case and being as healthy as a 38-year old basketball player can be, I think Nowitzki will be looking to cash in on his final years in the league and will be gunning for a ring on his way out. With that being said, that’s why I expect him to play at a high level and lead this team as the most valuable player. As Dirk goes, so do the Mavericks. ”
