The Dallas Mavericks<\/a> announced they had fired general manager Nico Harrison on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The team said Michael Finley and Matt Riccardi were named co-general managers while the organization searches for a permanent replacement.<\/p>\n

“This decision reflects our continued commitment to building a championship-caliber organization, one that delivers for our players, our partners, and most importantly, our fans,” Mavericks governor Patrick Dumont said in a statement.<\/p>\n

Harrison, 52, orchestrated the stunning trade of superstar Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers<\/a> last season.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Since the embattled general manager traded the fan favorite for Anthony Davis, chants of “Fire Nico!” have been a constant at Mavericks home games.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Harrison has been the team\u2019s general manager since June 2021 and had a 182-157 record in his four-plus seasons on the job. In 2023-2024, the team made it to the NBA Finals before falling to the Boston Celtics.<\/a><\/p>\n

After trading Doncic last season, the Mavericks fell out of the playoff picture and barely snuck into the Play-In Tournament, where they were eliminated. They became the first team since 2019-2020 to miss the playoffs the year after making the NBA Finals.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Mavericks improbably won the NBA Draft Lottery to get the No. 1 overall pick, which they used on former Duke star Cooper Flagg<\/a>. Despite Flagg and Davis forming a strong duo in the frontcourt, the Mavericks have struggled this season.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Mavericks are 3-8 and only ahead of the New Orleans Pelicans in the Western Conference. The team blew a double-digit lead to the Milwaukee Bucks<\/a> on Monday night, and the “fire Nico” chants grew louder as their lead disappeared from Mavericks fans in the 116-114 loss.\u00a0<\/p>\n

After the loss on Monday, Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd was asked if the chants calling for the general manager\u2019s job were affecting the team\u2019s morale. “It’s noise, so I would say that, speaking for them, we just continue to keep playing throughout the game. I thought, again, we put ourselves in a position to win tonight, but that’s a question you’ll have to ask the players that are playing.”<\/p>\n

Mavericks guard Brandon Williams called the chants “unfortunate,” but said they have to play through it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The team\u2019s first game in the post-Nico Harrison era is against the Phoenix Suns<\/a> (6-5) on Wednesday at 8:30 p.m. ET on Wednesday night.<\/p>\n
