“Just had off season drug testing. Told the guy: Did you see me move last year?? If I was on something I need to change the product ASAP!!!,” Nowitzki wrote on Twitter.

This isn’t the first time that Dirk pokes fun at himself in a deliciously self-sarcastic tone, especially regarding his declining with age athleticism. The German player has joked many times about his shape this past seasons with some brilliant, highly amusing results.
