Dirk Nowitzki, one of the most important European players in NBA history, made some important statements on Kristaps Porzingis, according to New York Post:
“He plays a lot more defense than I ever have, I’ll tell you that. He’s amazing because he’s got great timing with the long arms on the shot blocks coming out of nowhere. Offensively, he shoots it so easily from deep. He’s scary. He’s added more off-the-dribble now, more turnarounds in the post. He’s going to be a walking mismatch for a long time.”
“He’s way ahead of the curve. My first year I was struggling straight out of Germany and he had that great rookie year. If he stays injury-free, working like that — and I know he will — the sky’s going to be the limit“.
“He’s a good kid, hard worker, 7-3 with that wingspan and the shot. The sky’s the limit for the kid. He’s going to be great for a long, long time”, Nowitzki added on the Latvian.
