Dirk Nowitzki is one of a kind. Last week he became the 12th leading scorer in NBA’s history over John Havlicek, he is made his mark in the game and he is one of the best, if not the best, “international” player ever.
However as times goes by, he will have at some point to pass the mantle to a heir. That’s why he was asked during the last All Star Game by the show “Pick and roll” of OTE TV who is the next Dirk. He smiled and his answer was surprising, as the chosen one is Nikola Mirotic: “Ι am not sure. There’s plenty of great international players now in this league and I hear Mirotic from Real Madrid is really good. I heard he is coming over. So we will see. I heard he is coming over next year hopefully to Chicago. So we will see how good he is”.
