Is Dirk Nowitzki a Hall of Famer (HOF)?
Dirk is not yet a Hall of Famer, but he will be relishing the opportunity to be in there in the future.
However, Nowitzki, along with Clyde Drexler, Magic Johnson, Bob Pettit, and Oscar Robertson, has been designated a league ambassador in honor of the NBA’s historic 75th anniversary season.
According to a news statement, the group, which represents various eras of the league’s history, will make select appearances during the season and will have a strong presence at next year’s All-Star Game in Cleveland.
No. 41 was named to the NBA’s 75th Anniversary Team, which was revealed on October 19 during a special episode of TNT’s NBA Tip-Off show.
