The Dallas Mavericks celebrated Dirk Nowitzki in style on April 9. It was the one-year anniversary of his special night. The team dubbed it 41.21.1. They honored Dirk in what turned out to be the final home game of his legendary career.

It was a special, memorable, and emotional evening inside the American Airlines Center which reached a crescendo when Nowitzki officially announced his retirement on the floor during the postgame ceremony.

The Mavs took the chance to honor their GOAT again on the anniversary. Fox Sports Southwest re-aired the game, the postgame festivities, and a documentary on the night.
