The Dallas Mavericks and the Los Angeles Lakers made headlines in early February with a blockbuster trade that sent Luka Doncic to L.A. and Anthony Davis to Dallas. At the time, both teams believed they were setting themselves up for the future.<\/p>\n

Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka was praised, while Mavs general manager\u00a0Nico Harrison drew heavy criticism for trading a 26-year-old, five-time All-NBA First Team star.<\/p>\n

In the end, neither team contended for a championship this season. Dallas missed the playoffs after falling in the Play-In Tournament, with Davis playing only nine regular-season games due to a left adductor strain. And the Lakers were eliminated in the first round by the Minnesota Timberwolves in just five games.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, the NBA announced <\/a>Oklahoma City general manager Sam Presti as the 2024\u201325 Basketball Executive of the Year. Along with the announcement, the full voting results were released\u2014and Mavericks Harrison was nowhere to be found.<\/p>\n

Harrison didn\u2019t receive a single third-place vote. Lakers GM Rob Pelinka, on the other hand, earned one first-place vote, one second-place vote, and three third-place votes, finishing sixth overall with 11 points.<\/p>\n

Harrison recently wrapped up his fourth season as general manager of the Mavericks. Over that span, the team has compiled a 179\u2013149 regular-season record and made two playoff appearances.<\/p>\n

The first came in 2021\u201322, when Dallas lost in seven games to the Golden State Warriors in the Western Conference Finals. Last season, the Mavericks fell to the Boston Celtics in five games in the NBA Finals.<\/p>\n

Doncic spent his first seven and a half seasons in Dallas and was the driving force behind both deep playoff runs. Now, as long as Harrison remains in charge, his legacy will largely be defined by how that trade plays out.<\/p>\n
