The Dallas Mavericks will have at least one participant during All-Star weekend 2019 in Charlotte. No, Dennis Smith Jr. will not make his second attempt at winning the dunk contest. No, Luka Doncic has not been named an All-Star yet. It is the legendary Dirk Nowitzki taking the spotlight.
The future Hall of Famer has not played enough to make the game, but Dirk has been invited to take part in the 3-point shooting contest as part of All-Star Saturday night on Feb. 16 according to Marc Stein.
