The city of Dallas is moving forward with plans to name a street after Dirk Nowitzki.
On Thursday, the city approved renaming a portion of Olive Street, which runs in front of American Airlines Center, to Nowitzki Way, according to ESPN's Tim MacMahon.
"I'm excited for Dirk," Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban said.
Nowitzki retired from the NBA in April after 21 seasons.
