Dirk Nowitzki has received official clearance from the Mavericks to play for Germany at EuroBasket 2007.
Nowitzki is set to start training with Dirk Bauermann's German squad on Tuesday, which means he will take part in seven warm-up games ahead of the tournament in Spain.
The deal between the Mavs and the German federation bodes well for next year's Olympics in Beijing as EuroBasket is a qualifying tournament for the Games.
