Dallas Mavericks general manager Nico Harrison admitted that he miscalculated the popularity of Luka Dončić among the team’s fanbase before the shocking trade with the Los Angeles Lakers in February.

In their final season together in 2022-23, Claxton averaged 12.6 points, 9.2 rebounds and a career-high 2.5 blocks per game. He also shot a career-best 70.5% from the field, feasting on lobs from the Nets’ former stars.

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones told reporters that his wife, Gene, cried after finding out that the Dallas Mavericks traded Luka Dončić to the Los Angeles Lakers.
