DALLAS - The Dallas Mavericks are expected to fire general manager Nico Harrison after a disappointing 3–7 start to the 2025–26 NBA season, according to reports from NBA insiders.

Harrison reportedly has a meeting at 10 a.m. on Tuesday morning with the team's owners, and could be let go as soon as Tuesday.

Assistant GM Michael Finley is expected to take over on an interim basis, according to league insiders. The Mavericks have not yet named a permanent replacement.
