Dallas Mavericks general manager Nico Harrison did the unthinkable when he decided to trade Luka Doncic, the face of the franchise, to the Los Angeles Lakers for Anthony Davis. Not only did Harrison ship away the most beloved basketball player in the city during his prime, but he did so without getting the return many believe Doncic warranted.

Although he remains a minority owner of the team, Cuban has stepped back from day-to-day basketball operations since the Adelson family acquired majority control in late 2023.

Reactions to the trade that sent Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers and Anthony Davis to the Dallas Mavericks: “Thanks for everything.” — Doncic, in the Mavericks' player group chat, according to The Dallas Morning News.
