PLANO – As he juggles the numerous offseason acquisitions the Dallas Mavericks made during this summer in his head, Dirk Nowitzki can’t help but have a little extra pep in his step these days.
Since the Mavs’ season ended this past April, among the players they’ve added to their roster include veterans DeAndre Jordan and Devin Harris, and rookies Luka Doncic, Jalen Brunson, Ray Spalding, Kostas Antetokounmpo, Ryan Broekhoff and Ding Yanyuhang. The additions had Nowitzki smiling Wednesday just before he talked to over 100 kids at the Mavericks Summer Hoop Camp at Collin College.
“I think we should be a lot better than last year,” Nowitzki said.
