Dirk Nowitzki recreates the Rougned Odor punch... with Rougned Odor

Mavericks star Dirk Nowitzki recreated the highlight of the 2016 MLB season.

Dirk Nowitzki, tall baller from the G and legendary Twitterer, took some time out of his off-season to recreate what has surely been the highlight of the 2016 MLB season (so far).

In a photo posted to his Twitter account, Nowitzki offered a loose recreation of Rougned Odor’s punch on Jose Bautista. Nowitzki, of course, plays his home games in Dallas, while Odor plays for the neighboring Texas Rangers.

You can view the original punch above, and Nowitzki's and Odor’s dramatization below:
