Last night ESPN’s Marc Stein reported Dirk Nowitzki is back on the court, just about one week after head coach Rick Carlisle said the superstar would be out “for a while” and shut down for one week, at least.

“It’s definitely better, but I really haven’t done much yet,” Nowitzki told ESPN.com. “Today was good, but we didn’t go anything close to full speed. Just started moving on the court a bit.

“We don’t want to rush anything and go back to where we were last week. So if I feel anything this weekend, they’re going to ease off again.
