Nowitzki was all smiles in Victory Plaza as he looked at the statue, and the fans in attendance matched that energy as they knew this was coming for theFox 4 reports the statue has a 21-word phrase on it, which represents Nowitzki’s 21 NBA years with Dallas. Some of the words read,"Loyalty never fades away."
As you’d expect, it was an emotional moment for Nowitzki, especially when he was watching a video of the sculptor explaining how that statue will be on Nowitzki Way for 500 years to come. A 14-time All-Star, league MVP,where Dallas won their only title to date, and a 12-time All-NBA selection, Nowitzki is one of the front-runners to be elected to the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame.
Nowitzki finished sixth all-time in points scored with 31,650 over his career. And that fadeaway shot in the post was a contributing factor to many of them.
