Dirk Nowitzki joins the 30,000 club on his signature fadeaway

Dallas Mavericks legend Dirk Nowitzki joined elite company last night as he crossed one of the most exclusive NBA milestones - the 30,000 points club:

Dirk fittingly laced his signature fadeaway with Larry Nance Jr draped over him to cross the milestone. As much as Celtics fans appreciate seeing the Lakers on the other side of Nowitzki's infamous weapon, it's also sort of fitting for the longtime Mav as he's spent his entire career battling some great Laker teams - he fought the Shaq/Kobe teams in the early 2000s and the Kobe/Gasol/Odom installments years later, so he's had his fair share of wars with them.
