The Wolves could be facing NBA great Dirk Nowitzki for the last time on Wednesday night when they take on the Mavericks in Dallas. There has been widespread speculation that this will be Nowitzki’s last season.
Dirk has made a difference in the careers of many players and coaches for the Wolves, including big men Karl-Anthony Towns and Gorgui Dieng.
“His impact has been big especially for big guys like me, opening up the floor for us guys coming in and showing us we can do more than just have our back to the basket,” said Towns.
