Dirk Nowitzki Has Three-Word Message For West Finals-Bound Mavs

Game 6 between the Dallas Mavericks and the Oklahoma City Thunder was truly remarkable, leaving Mavs fans, including the legendary NBA Hall of Famer Dirk Nowitzki, hyped.

Nowitzki, a 14-time NBA All-Star and MVP winner, during his remarkable 21-year career with the Mavericks, was spotted courtside on Saturday night, passionately cheering on his former team.

Remembering how he led the Mavericks to a championship victory in 2011 over the Miami Heat, fans are excited about Luka Dončić's potential to do the same now as the current star in town.

Nowitzki had a simple three-word message for fans following Dallas’s thrilling 117-116 victory.

“Western Conference Finals!!!!,” Nowitzki posted on social media.

The Mavericks trailed by 17 points in the second half but rallied, led by stellar performances from Kyrie Irving (22 points) and Luka Doncic (29 points).

P.J. Washington's crucial free throws, amidst controversy over the call, sealed the series victory for the Mavericks, securing a 4-2 series win.

The Mavericks secure a spot in the Western Conference Finals for the second time in three years.

Dallas will face the winner of the Game 7 showdown between the Denver Nuggets and Minnesota Timberwolves.
