The fallout from Mavericks GM Nico Harrison’s decision to trade away superstar Luka Doncic has created a rift with franchise legend Dirk Nowitzki, according to ESPN’s Tim MacMahon. During an appearance on ESPN’s “The Hoop Collective” podcast on Wednesday, MacMahon explained that Nowitzki, as well as Mavericks minority owner Mark Cuban, are distancing themselves from the organization following Harrison’s comments at the invite-only media roundtable held Tuesday in Dallas . “First of all, Dirk is completely turned off by this franchise,” MacMahon, who attended the press conference, said.
