The Dallas Mavericks are optimistic that star power forward Dirk Nowitzki’s return from arthroscopic surgery on his right knee will be closer to three weeks than six weeks, multiple sources said.

After Nowitzki underwent the operation Friday, the team conservatively announced that he would resume on-court activities within approximately six weeks.
