Dirk Nowitzki: I felt 10 times better Sunday
Dirk Nowitzki - F - Dallas Mavericks
Dec. 31, 2012 - 9:50 AM ET

Dirk Nowitzki (knee) said that he felt "10 times better" than he had been on Sunday, and also ditched his protective sleeve.

Nowitzki finished with just eight points, five boards, two assists and three blocks in 23 minutes off the bench, but it's a positive sign that he continues to feel better and better as he works his way back into shape. "I had a lot more pep in my step. I had more spring in my lift," he said.
