In the letter, the fan says Nowitki has been taking discounts to help the Dallas Mavericks the past six seasons, so the $20 is intended to buy the star big man lunch.
Dirk held the letter and money up proudly. He has been taking discounts in hopes of helping the Mavericks build a contender. It’s nice to see his generosity recognized. And it’s also encouraging for fans to know Nowitzki pays attention to his fan mail, as he also took note of receiving a potato in the mail.
