The legend of Dirk Nowitzki includes one more unique milestone from last night as he became the first ever international player to score 30.000 points.

By Eurohoops team/ info@eurohoops.net

Dirk Nowitzki scored the 20 points he needed for 30,000 in barely more than a quarter despite coming in with just five 20-point games this season, and the Mavericks celebrated with their second straight easy home win over the Los Angeles Lakers, a 122-111 victory.

The 7-foot German became the sixth NBA player and the first international one to reach the milestone, joining four Hall of Famers and a future one in Kobe Bryant. Nowitzki is one of three to score all 30,000-plus with one team. The others are Karl Malone (Utah) and Bryant (Lakers). Wilt Chamberlain, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Michael Jordan are the the other three members of this exclusive club.
