Dirk Nowitzki entered the league as a young German kid with a funky haircut in Dallas. Fast forward 18 years, Nowitzki finds himself as 6th on the all-time scoring list and one of the greatest players in the history of the game.
After his impressive career that has consisted of an MVP and championship ring, Nowitzki is commonly thrown around in all-time ranking debates, especially with other great power forwards.
In this piece, we are putting Nowitzki up against the only power forward above him on the all-time scoring list, none other than Karl Malone.
Karl Malone played 19 seasons in the NBA where he notably led a Utah Jazz team alongside John Stockton throughout the 90’s.
