Amid perhaps the last week of his storied NBA career, Dirk Nowitzki a few mornings ago blurted to his wife, Jessica, a potential clue about his pending plans.
"I want to eat ice cream for breakfast."
Mavericks legend Nowitzki, 40, strictly abstains from sugar in-season. Was this craving a desire to eat what he wants, when he wants, for the rest of his life? Or until he begins training for season No. 22?
If anyone besides Nowitzki knows The Answer that Mavericks fans anxiously await to hear, surely it's Jessica Nowitzki, Dirk's wife of nearly seven years.
