Luka Dončić shows Mavericks why decision to trade him could age horribly
New York TimesLOS ANGELES — Nico Harrison heard the chants. The Dallas Mavericks general manager, whose choice to trade Luka Dončić might go down as one of the biggest blunders in the history of the NBA, and who sat there in that dapper blue suit for all the Crypto.com Arena fans to see in the reunion game on Tuesday night, couldn’t avoid the sarcastic gratitude that was heaped upon him. “Thank you … Nico!” the Luka Nation bellowed several times during the Los Angeles Lakers’ 107-99 win. “It was easy to complement him while he’s having an MVP season — an MVP-caliber season,” Irving said while reflecting on their NBA Finals run together last season, when Doncic finished third in MVP voting. And if Dončić is going to play like this — critics be damned — it’s bound to get even better in Luka Land.
