Here's a look at 12 of the NBA's biggest storylines for today, including what's going on with the Dallas Mavericks.

DONUT 1: MAVS GRAB WIN VS. WARRIORS

On Dirk Nowitzki night, the Dallas Mavericks came out on top with a 99-82 win over the Golden State Warriors. A big win for Luka Doncic's Mavs ... and a big thought from Luka on Dirk's night ...

“That,'' Doncic said after watching the video of the 2011 title as part of Dirk's jersey retirement, "is what I want to do one day.”

DONUT 2: BUILD THAT MAN A STATUE!

Dirk Nowitzki's statue was unveiled, and it's a sight for sore eyes. And crying eyes.

DONUT 3: SAY CHEESE!

Here's a look at some photos during Dirk's historic evening and thrilling win over the Warriors.

DONUT 4: D-WADE SHOWS DIRK SOME RESPECT

After two epic battles in the NBA Finals, Dwyane Wade gave his foe Dirk Nowitzki his flowers.

DONUT 5: WHO GETS THEIR NUMBER RETIRED NEXT?

Seeing 41 go to the rafters was sweet, but Mike Fisher and Dalton Trigg discuss why it probably will be a while until we see another number head up there.

DONUT 6: ON THIS DAY, 1995

Atlanta Hawks head coach Lenny Wilkens passed Boston Celtics head coach and Hall of Famer Red Auerbach to become the NBA’s all-time winningest coach with 939 career victories, after the Hawks defeated the Washington Bullets 112-90.

DONUT 7: NICO HARRISON: LUKA 'WILL WIN TITLES'

It's a bold statement, but the Mavericks' GM is confident that Luka Doncic will follow in Dirk Nowitzki's footsteps and win championships in Dallas.

DONUT 8: AN OFFER MONEY CAN'T BUY

When Dirk Nowitzki retired, he passed the torch to Luka Doncic. But he's doing more than just that in retirement.

DONUT 9: KP FOR AD?

It seems like a pipe dream, but could Kristaps Porzingis and Anthony Davis be involved in the same trade?

DONUT 10: KYRIE SHINES IN DEBUT

In his first game of the season, Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving scored 22 points, while Kevin Durant added 39 in a 129-121 win over the Indiana Pacers. On the flip side, Lance Stephenson scored 30 off the bench.

DONUT 11: KEVIN PORTER JR. BOUNCES BACK

After being suspended one game for leaving the arena during Saturday night's loss, Houston Rockets guard Kevin Porter Jr. made a statement in his return to the court and hit a game-winner against the Washington Wizards.

DONUT 12: UP NEXT

The Mavericks are not on the schedule for Thursday - a day off to dry the eyes is needed! - but will travel down I-95 to face the Houston Rockets at Toyota Center. Tipoff is scheduled for Friday at 7 p.m. CT.

Fun game. Probably won't match Wednesday's fun, right, Dirk?

“That thing is forever up there,'' he said of No. 41 in the rafters. "It means a lot.”
