Nowitzki Trying to Decide If Opting Out the Best Decision

One month after saying on 1310 The Ticket that he was planning to opt out and sign back with the Mavericks this summer, (Dirk) Nowitzki told The Fan hosts that he isn’t completely sure of his decision quite yet.

“Just trying to find out what the best (thing to do) is,” he said. “Is it best to stay in the contract and play next year and keep the same pay, or should I opt out? Is that best for the franchise? Just trying to find out from Donnie and Mark what’s out there, what the plan is. So, 100%, my mind’s not made up, but I’m leaning toward opting out and trying to help, and see what’s out there.”
