Nowitzki on Markkanen: “He’s going to be great for a long time”

By Eurohoops team / info@eurohoops.net

Dirk Nowitzki faced Lauri Markkanen last night (5/1) and even saw him… beating him!

The Mavericks’ legend had some high-praising words for the Finnish player, who had a fine performance with 16 points and 9 rebounds in the Bulls win:

He’s gonna be great for a long, long time… This kid has got the same upside (as Kristaps Porzingis)”, Nowitzki said to ESPN.

The German also made some important statements on Porzingis last week.
