“I just have to go with the flow,” said Nowitzki to media. “I really don’t know how it’s all going to play out. [Malaika] is actually sleeping pretty well already. She gets seven or eight hours sometimes and obviously we’ve got a little help sometimes, so I should be OK. I mean, I might be tired sometimes in practice, but I should be all right.”

Although excited to begin the upcoming season with a child, Dirk isn’t planning to have his daughter cheering in the stands just yet. “Unfortunately it’s just a little early for her to watch me play, which would be sweet, but I don’t think she understands that much yet.” The star athlete added, “Maybe one of these days, when she gets a little older, I’ll still be playing.”

Malaika is Dirk and wife Jessica’s first child together. The couple wed on July 20, 2012.
