Mavs' new court will feature Dirk tribute
The tributes continue for Dirk Nowitzki in Dallas.
Designer Skyler in Dallas has revealed that the Mavericks will be replacing the secondary logos on their court with a silhouette of Nowitzki for the 2019-20 NBA season.

Nowitzki retired from the NBA in April after 21 seasons, all of which were spent with the Mavs.
In June, the city of Dallas voted to rename a portion of one of the streets near American Airlines Center as Nowitzki Way. Mavs owner Mark Cuban has also promised to build the "biggest, most badass statue ever" of Nowitzki.
