No — Dirk Nowitzki is mixed-handed; while he shoots in basketball with his right hand, he is known to write with his left hand.
Dirk Nowitzki is a German former professional basketball player who spent his entire 21-year National Basketball Association (NBA) career with the Dallas Mavericks. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest power forwards of all time.
Standing 7 feet tall, Nowitzki developed a signature one-legged fadeaway jump shot that became nearly unstoppable. He led the Mavericks to their first NBA championship in 2011, where he was named the Finals MVP.
Nowitzki was an NBA All-Star 14 times, an All-NBA Team member 12 times, and was named the NBA Most Valuable Player in 2007. He is the only player in NBA history to play 21 seasons with a single franchise.
Beyond his on-court achievements, Nowitzki is celebrated for his loyalty and sportsmanship. He retired in 2019, leaving behind a legacy as a trailblazer for European players in the NBA and a beloved figure in Dallas sports.
