The boy who wore a Lakers jersey became the trigger for Harrison s dismissal, and the team owner confessed the trading mistake in person

According to NBA "whistleblower" Shams Charania, Mavericks president Dumont has decided to announce the dismissal of team general manager Harrison at a meeting at noon local time on Tuesday.

Nick Harrison still did not escape the fate of being fired after sending away Doncic.

Since sending away Doncic, Harrison, as the instigator, has been criticized verbally and writtenly by fans from all over the world. Even though they later received the No. 1 pick Flagg as compensation, it did not calm the anger of the public, especially Mavericks fans.

After the start of the game, the Mavericks had 3 wins and 8 losses and were only second to last in the Western Conference. The thick eyebrows acquired as the core bargaining chip were not only plagued by injuries (only played in 14 games so far), but also obviously gained weight and were out of shape, which proved that this transaction had a major harm to the team.

But what really prompted Dumont, the Mavericks owner, to decide to fire Harrison was probably a young man wearing a Lakers jersey.

In yesterday's game against the Bucks, the courtside boss Dumont interacted with a teenager wearing Doncic's Lakers jersey.

It is said that during this exchange, Dumont took responsibility for the team's current predicament and frankly admitted that trading Doncic in that way was a mistake.

And just 12 hours later, news came that Harrison had been fired.

This interactive scene became popular on American social networks. According to reporter Ron Harrod Jr., the teenager’s name is Nicholas Dickason and he is a fan of the Mavericks and Doncic.

What’s interesting is that he didn’t come to hold Dumont accountable this time, but instead came to apologize.

He gave Dumont the middle finger in the season opener against the Spurs, and his father, who had a strict upbringing, ordered him to apologize in person.

"I was so angry about the deal that I bought a Lakers jersey to express my opinion on the deal."

It's hard to say whether Dumont, as the owner, finally made the decision to fire Harrison because he encountered the teenager's disrespect.

But what is certain is that sending away Doncic and the current poor record of the Mavericks do require someone to stand up and take all the responsibility.

And Harrison can persist until now just to exert his last bit of value in this moment.

The next era of the Lone Ranger is coming.
