The Dallas Mavericks decision to trade Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers this season deeply angered and hurt the Mavericks fanbase. Doncic was the team's beloved superstar, and had every intention to spend his entire career with the team. By trading Doncic, the Mavericks betrayed both him and the fans.
In response, Mavericks fans have let general manager Nico Harrison and the team know how much they despised the decision. They protested the trade outside of the American Airlines Center, and when Doncic returned to Dallas for the first time as a Laker, Mavericks fans alternated between cheering for him and chanting "fire Nico!"
