RE: Dirk Nowitzki Story

in Sports Talk Social3 years ago

Before playing basketball, Dirk played handball and tennis and even managed to get into the German junior tennis rankings but he quickly got tired of being called a "freak" due to his height.

I often notice that trait in sports stars, that they played various sports growing up, which helped them to improve different aspects of their game.

Sort:  

I think they dont start playing different sports taking as a goal to help in different aspects of their game.

They are just kids finding a sport they like to play.
