. BREAKING: Nico Harrison Petition ESPN to Withhold Luka Dončić Footage Following 45-Point Performance Against Mavericks…👇👇👇

In a surprising post-game development, Mavericks GM Nico Harrison has formally requested that ESPN withhold broadcasting extended footage of Luka Dončić’s stunning 45-point performance against his former team, the Dallas Mavericks. Dončić, now with the opposing squad, put on a showstopping display in his return to Dallas, igniting a firestorm of commentary and reaction across the league.

Sources close to the organization say Harrison’s petition stems from a desire to protect the morale of the current Mavericks roster, which struggled defensively throughout the night. The GM allegedly cited the “potential psychological impact” of repeated replays on both players and fans during what’s become a turbulent stretch of the season.

While ESPN has not yet publicly responded to the request, the move has sparked debate about media coverage boundaries and the tension between player legacies and team loyalty. Social media lit up with reactions, many calling the attempt “petty,” while others empathized with Harrison’s desire to shield his squad from what some are calling “a public dismantling.”

Whether the footage stays in rotation or not, one thing is certain—Luka Dončić’s legacy in Dallas just took on a new, more complicated chapter.
