When Dirk Nowitzki  joined the NBA, numerous players and coaches alike didn’t believe Nowitzki would even last in the league, let alone break all kinds of records for a big man.

But he has done just that, and continued to prove the doubters wrong throughout his glamorous career. Nowitzki not only changed the game for international players, but changed the game forever overall.

But before all the glory, Dirk Nowitzki also played some Summer League, and some incredibly footage of him playing point center during the 1999 NBA Summer League now has resurfaced. Young Dirk was fast!!!
