Dirk Nowitzki’s bag got lost in Miami and he had some hilarious tweets about it
The Dallas Mavericks traveled to Miami on Thursday for a Friday night game against the Heat, and Dirk Nowitzki experienced a classic airline issue in the process. His bag was either lost or stolen.
Many of us know what it’s like to have your luggage misplaced during a trip, and it is not a great feeling. But Dirk — being the jokester that he is — seemed to take it in stride. He initially sent this funny tweet on Friday, presumably when he realized that his bag was nowhere to be found.
I hope the guy that stole my bag here is 7 ft so he can at least rock my sweet clothes….

Fortunately, Dirk’s luggage was recovered and delivered to his room the day after it was lost. He later revealed what “sweet clothes” he was referring to in his first tweet.
Quick update. My bag just got delivered to my room almost 24 hrs after we got in. So now I can wear my lederhosen tonight….

As if the misplaced bag wasn’t enough, the Mavericks later lost to the Heat when LeBron James stole Nowitzki’s signature move to put the game away. At least Dirk got his lederhosen back. Since it’s still very early in the season, the lederhosen takes priority over everything else.
