Dirk Nowitzki can easily match Kristaps Porzingis when it comes to shooting jumpers, but his 39-year-old legs are no match for Porzingis' young springs.
Porzingis hung an easy letter on Nowitzki in a game of HORSE by serving up an off-the-glass dunk to himself Friday before the NBA Africa Game on Saturday. The German was a good sport and gave it a try, but he barely left his toes as his hilarious attempt came way short.
Nowitzki had a laugh about it afterward.
