Dirk Nowitzki is not only the lone active player on this list, but he is also the lone international player as well. Nowitzki currently ranks sixth in all-time scoring (29,491), which easily places him as the top-scoring foreign-born player in NBA history. He is also credited for pioneering his very own step back jump shot, a shot which is considered to be one of the most indefensible in basketball history.
Nowitzki re-signed with the Mavericks earlier this summer and will extend his playing days in Dallas through the 2017-18 season. Nowitzki has grown to be synonymous with Dallas Mavericks basketball, which makes it difficult to imagine a more loyal and iconic figure in the future of the franchise.
