Reports: Mavericks Set to Fire GM Nico Harrison After ‘Fire Nico’ Chants and 3-8 Start

Ownership moves toward a change following weeks of public pressure over the Luka Dončić deal.

Overview

  • Shams Charania reports Dallas is expected to dismiss Nico Harrison at a 10 a.m. CT meeting Tuesday, with Tim MacMahon also reporting the move.
  • Chants of “Fire Nico” rang out during Monday’s 116-114 home loss to the Bucks as Harrison sat in the stands and P.J. Washington addressed the crowd’s frustration postgame.
  • The Mavericks fell to 3-8 despite No. 1 pick Cooper Flagg posting a career-high 26 points in the loss.
  • Mavs governor Patrick Dumont reportedly told a courtside fan he feels bad about the Dončić trade and has recently weighed in on Anthony Davis’ return timeline.
  • Marc Stein reported the team set up a seating and exit arrangement to shield Harrison from fans, as insiders characterize his job status as precarious and Davis remains out with a calf strain.
