NBA commissioner Adam Silver on Luka Dončić trade: 'I understand why Dallas Mavericks fans are so upset'

NBA commissioner Adam Silver can see both sides of the Luka Dončić deal. Shortly after the trade was made, Silver defended the Dallas Mavericks, saying he believes the team did what it believed "was in the best interest of the organization."But Silver has also heard and seen how fans reacted to the days. In the days immediately following the move, Mavericks fans protested outside the team's stadium and directed a lot of ire, to put it mildly, at Mavericks general manager Nico Harrison.
