ESPN.com and the TrueHoop Network are ranking every NBA player -- and counting them down on Twitter (@ESPNNBA), from No. 500 to No. 1.
Here are the Mavericks' rankings:
Dirk Nowitzki is 10th on the all-time scoring list. He needs 624 points to move into seventh, passing Hakeem Olajuwon, Elvin Hayes and Moses Malone.
Dirk Nowitzki averaged 1.11 points per play last season, tied with LeBron James for the league lead among the 89 players with at least 1,000 plays.

@ESPNNBA Dirk, even at age of 36, is proving to be one of the most efficient players today. #NBArank

@ESPNNBA Al-Farouq Aminu is underwhelming as a starter, but could be a potent weapon off the bench for Mavs. Underrated rebounder.#nbarank
