Dallas Mavericks Part Ways With Nico Harrison: Who Will Replace Him

Nico Harrison is departing from the Dallas Mavericks. In a recent discussion with Brian Windhorst on The Hoop Collective, ESPN’s Tim MacMahon shared insights regarding the potential timeline for Harrison's exit, especially in light of the Mavericks' troubling 2025 season. MacMahon suggested that a firing could occur sooner rather than later, highlighting the team’s significant struggles. He remarked, “There’s a myriad of issues plaguing the Mavericks. At this juncture, I believe it’s a question of when, not if, Nico Harrison will be dismissed.” He emphasized the likelihood of a mid-season change, expressing cautious optimism yet cautioning about the team’s capacity to recover, stating, “Every time I think they’ve reached rock bottom, they somehow find a way to sink deeper.” Currently, the Mavericks sit at 3-7, illustrating one of the league's weakest offenses, with top prospect Cooper Flagg underperforming amid injuries. The coaching situation has thus taken a dramatic turn.
