Almost immediately after the Doncic trade in earlier February, fans began chanting “Fire Nico” at Mavericks home games in an attempt to voice their displeasure to ownership. The only problem was that ownership, led by the Dumont family, seemed to be fully onboard with Harrison’s decision, with some even speculating that it was their idea originally, and Harrison was just being painted as a “fall guy” of sorts.
