The remaining three years of the contract are about 175.37 million ~ Famous reporter: The Mavericks may evaluate the trading market for thick eyebrows in the next few months

Today, the Mavericks have fired the team's president of basketball operations and general manager Nico Harrison.

With Harrison dismissed from get out of class in Dallas, the future of Anthony Davis (hereinafter referred to as Big Eyebrow) in the Mavericks has also triggered discussions. The two have a close relationship. Harrison also led the universe-level transaction in which Doncic was exchanged for Big Eyebrow and other chips.

According to ESPN's famous Mavericks reporter Tim MacMahon, multiple sources revealed that evaluating the trading market for thick eyebrows in the next few months is what the Mavericks should do. After all, the 3-4 year championship window envisaged by Harrison is obviously unattainable.

The original text is as follows:

The biggest question about Davis at the moment is not when he will return from a calf strain, but whether the management will consider trading the 32-year-old inside player - this would have been impossible when Harrison was in charge of basketball operations.

Many executives and scouts from other teams believe that for the Mavericks, rebuilding around Flagg will be a logical transformation direction. However, due to previous transactions to build a championship lineup around Doncic, the Mavericks lost control of multiple first-round picks from 2027 to 2030, which laid hidden dangers for the reconstruction plan.

"Although they have Flagg, the team has an aging roster and lacks future draft picks," one Western Conference decision-maker said frankly. "If this is the only way, they must accept the reality of taking two steps back temporarily. They need to be patient - this season should have been bad, but I don't think Dumont, as the new owner, can accept the regression calmly. This is not in line with the norm of the new owner."

Although Davis is still a dominant force on both offense and defense when healthy, repeated injury problems make his trade value full of variables. Multiple sources in the league emphasized that evaluating the (thick eyebrow) trade market in the next few months is due diligence that the Mavericks must perform. After all, the 3-4 year championship window envisaged by Harrison is obviously unattainable.

"The league has long abandoned the two-line parallel team building model," a Western Conference executive pointed out. "Now the Mavericks should say, 'We will exchange Davis for any assets we can get.' But the key is that no one is currently sure what their actual gains will be."

In early February this year, the Mavericks sent Doncic and other bargaining chips in a three-party transaction in exchange for Big Eyebrow, Christie and a first-round pick.

There are three years left on Nong Mei’s contract, totaling nearly US$175.37 million, of which the salary in the 2025-26 season is US$54,126,450, the 2026-27 season is US$58,456,566, and the 2027-28 season is US$62,786,682 (player option).

Due to a calf strain, Nongmei missed 6 consecutive games. So far this season, Nongmei has played in 5 games, averaging 20.8 points, 10.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.6 steals and 1.2 blocks per game.
