Dallas Mavericks Reportedly Upset With Luka Doncic Billboard Near Their Arena
Aug 27, 2025
Last season, the Dallas Mavericks made a trade that could have derailed their entire franchise, as Luka Doncic was traded to the Los Angeles Lakers in a shocking move. The move was met with utter disdain from their fanbase, and although they got lucky with Cooper Flagg, GM Nico Harrison is still feeling the hatred from many Mavericks fans.
While both parties will move on eventually, the Mavs organization clearly aren't there yet, as they latest story proves. According to Arash Markazi of The Sporting Tribune, the Mavericks were furious when a billboard of Overwatch including Doncic was placed 'too close to the American Airlines Arena'.
The organization went as far as to have the billboard officially moved, and that's not surprising at all given the hard feelings that still exist from their fanbase. One day, the team will need to honour Doncic for all he did in the seven years in Dallas, but for now, the player has no interest in the team after what happened, and clearly, Nico Harrison still isn't over the backlash he got for the move.


With all of that happening away from the court, Doncic's return to Dallas is going to be incredible, and while fans are going to support their former star, the front office won't enjoy the reaction on that day. For now however, the Mavericks continue to be petty over the reaction from the fanbase to the ridiculous move of trading him, and this latest move is just another example of that as the organization continue to deal with that backlash.
