Dirk Nowitzki: "I've been in a good groove"

Dirk Nowitzki has said that he has been in a "good groove" in his last couple of appearances for the Dallas Mavericks.

The veteran forward scored 34 points during the team's 107-103 win over the Sacramento Kings, picking up more than 30 for the second game in a row.

The 35-year-old told reporters: "I've been in a good groove. Before the last three, I didn't really have a good groove."

Nowitzki has been named as a reserve for next month's All-Star game.
