Sharp pointed to Der Spiegel’s interview with Dirk Nowitzki on Tuesday. Spurs Nation points out another bit of awesome in that interview.
Muhammed Ali Sends Fellow Champion Dirk Nowitzki A Gift
↵↵Nowitzki: Muhammad Ali sent me a package.
↵SPIEGEL: What was in it?
↵Nowitzki: A boxing glove with the inscription: “You are the greatest.” Please don’t ask me immediately about the political meaning of the gift. I was simply happy and sent Ali a golden basketball with a similar inscription.
↵↵I like to think Ali has an assistant whose sole job is to send out autographed boxing gloves to the world’s sporting champions. What an awesome job.
