Dirk Nowitzki has officially wrapped up his 21-year NBA career, and he accomplished the rare feat of spending the entire time with one team. It goes without saying that he built a strong relationship with the fans during that span, and that was reflected in the way he thanked them over the weekend.
Nowitzki took out a full-page ad in the Dallas Morning News on Sunday thanking Mavericks fans “from the bottom of my heart.”

Nowitzki received some outstanding ovations from opposing fans during his farewell tour this season, and he is one of the most respected players in league history. He was one of the main reasons the Mavericks won their first championship in franchise history back in 2011, and fans in Dallas will never forget it.
