Dirk Nowitzki may play with the German national team again after all

It certainly looked like Dirk Nowitzki had played his last game with the German national team after they fell to Spain in EuroBasket 2015. That might not be the case, though. 

The Dallas Mavericks superstar left open the possibility of playing another game for Germany. 

Here's more from Earl K. Sneed of Mavs.com: 

"However, after being moved to tears as the Berlin crowd sent the 7-footer off the floor with a standing ovation following what was believed to be his last international game, Nowitzki hinted that Thursday’s outing may not have been his final time to play in a German uniform. And should the opportunity present itself in the future, Nowitzki may again suit up in his No. 14 German jersey.

“Well, I thought so,” Nowitzki told EuroBasket2015.org when asked if Thursday’s outing was his last with the national team. “But now, I’ve heard that there is a chance [for Germany] to get a wild card to host a pre-Olympic tournament. So, we’ll just have to wait to see, or come back together next summer and talk about it. But for me, in my head, at the end, that was it.”
