Good Riddance and Goodbye!
February 2025 wasn't a great month for the Dallas Mavericks. Why? They were at the center of a controversial decision that would eventually haunt the team for a long time: trading fan-favorite Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers. Once the news made headlines, Mavericks fans were furious and belted their frustrations online and also held protests. Just to remind everyone that the Mavericks were in the NBA Finals a year prior to this disastrous firestorm that would eventually unfold. Doncic averaged 37 points a game before the trade occurred.

In an open letter to fans, Patrick Dumont acknowledged how the team is committed to become a winning team. While he didn't go into specific detail about now ex-General Manager Nico Harrison, he's heard the genuine concerns of fans and is confident about the future of the Mavericks.
