The jokes were flying at the 4th annual Dirk Nowitzki Pro Celebrity Tennis Classic

Sunday morning, several friends joined Dallas Mavericks legend Dirk Nowitzki on the campus of Southern Methodist University for the fourth annual Dirk Nowitzki Pro Celebrity Tennis Classic. The event is one of many that Nowitzki hosts through his charity organization, the Dirk Nowitzki Foundation.

“It’s that time of the year again to play some bad tennis,” Nowitzki joked before the event. “Thanks to all you guys’ support. We had our fundraiser last night. It went really well. Raised a lot money thanks to our sponsors and our supporters. We were able to do lots of great stuff last year with the funds we did for local North Texas projects and we’re going to do the same thing again with the stuff we raised last night.
