Paige Bueckers’ arrival in the Dallas Wings was highly seen as a ‘lifeline’ for the franchise. Apart from the quality on the court massively improved, there was a ‘high tide’ of positivity around the Arlington-based franchise. Her sold-out debut game was evidence of it. And now her second home game also brought in Dallas royalty to the court-side.
The arena saw Dallas’ hero, Dirk Nowitzki, at the College Park Center supporting the Wings. The NBA Finals MVP was a regular at the American Airlines Arena while Luka Doncic was still at the Mavs. Even after Doncic’s trade, he was spotted at the Lakers’ game when Mavs’ superstar was making his LA debut. Dirk called it a ‘Bizarre moment for him’ to watch Doncic in ‘yellow jersey’. But now the Hall of Famer is back in his city, supporting its newest star.
