Posted Mar 8, 2017
Dirk Nowitzki further solidified his Hall of Fame legacy on Tuesday night by becoming the sixth player in NBA history to reach 30,000 career points. Anyone on a list with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Karl Malone, Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan, and Wilt Chamblerlain is a legend. (Julius Erving has also topped 30,000 points, if you include his ABA stats.)
