Dirk Nowitzki Cristal Taylor

On May 6, 2009, authorities apprehended Cristal Taylor at Nowitzki’s home. She was served with two warrants: a probation violation and a theft of service charge. Holger Geschwindner, the German coach, credited with mentoring and training young Nowitzki to become a superstar, ordered a background check and a prenuptial agreement for Taylor. The investigations sparked a chain reaction.

Dirk and Taylor were reportedly engaged and planning to marry in July 2009, with the Mavericks star spending $250,000 on an engagement ring. Unfortunately, investigations into her background revealed that she had previously committed financial crimes. Taylor failed to pay a dentist in 2004 for work worth up to $20,000.

Taylor was also said to have racked up $330,000 in debt while married to her ex-husband. Meanwhile, she was placed on probation in 1999 after multi-year prison sentences for forgery and two counts of felony were suspended.
