Dallas Mavericks' recent trade involving Luka Doncic has left fans fuming, especially as the team suffered post-trade with a 13-20 record. The Mavericks acquired Anthony Davis, who then became sidelined for much of the season due to injury. Key players such as Kyrie Irving and Daniel Gafford also faced injury setbacks, leading to a disappointing failure to make the playoffs. As a consequence, general manager Nico Harrison has made significant staff changes, including firing the athletic performance director and head athletic trainer.

With Doncic's departure and an aging roster, the Mavericks face a daunting rebuild. The team must navigate contract expirations for young talents and the uncertainty surrounding Davis and Irving's futures as they approach their mid-30s.
