DALLAS - No international player has scored more points in the NBA than Dirk Nowitzki.
Nowitzki, the native of Wurzburg, Germany, and face of the Dallas Mavericks franchise, moved past Nigerian-born Hakeem Olajuwon into ninth place on the NBA's all-time scoring list Tuesday night.
Dirk Nowitzki knocked down a midrange jumper with 8:56 left Tuesday against the Kings to pass Hakeem Olajuwon in career scoring.
Nowitzki, a 17-year veteran, entered the 106-98 victory over Sacramento Kings needing 17 points to pass Olajuwon, the former Houston Rockets center who finished his Hall of Fame career with 26,946 points
