The Dallas Mavericks have made changes in their power structure for the first time in more than a decade. Former Nike executive Nico Harrison is set to replace Donnie Nelson as the team’s president of basketball operations. Rick Carlisle resigned and Jason Kidd is slated to fill his role. The decision-makers around owner Mark Cuban have changed, but the pressure to win remains.
Luka Doncic can sign a max contract extension worth over $200 million this offseason. He is expected to agree to the deal, but the clocking is ticking for the Mavs to build a title contender around the 22-year-old.
