Mavs to retire Dirk Nowitzki's No. 41 in the January 5th games

'Wunder Dirk' is one of the greatest European players of all time.

The Dallas Mavericks will retire Dirk Nowitzki’s No.41 jersey during their January 5 game against the Golden State Warriors, Marc Stein reports.

Nowitzki is the only player ever to play for a single NBA franchise for 21 seasons.

The German power forward is the sixth best scorer in NBA history with 31,560 points.

The Mavericks are planning to retire Dirk Nowitzki's iconic No. 41 on Jan. 5 when they play at home against Golden State, sources say.
