Dallas Mavericks icon Dirk Nowitzki needs 20 points to eclipse the 30,000-point plateau Tuesday against the visiting Los Angeles Lakers.
The big German got right to work by scoring the first eight points for the Mavericks, then peppered in a smattering of short jumpers and free throws for 14 total points in the opening five minutes.
