Mavericks general manager Nico Harrison doesn't regret essentially gift-wrapping generational superstar Luka Doncic to the Lakers.

According to Briauna Brown of CBS News, Harrison had a private roundtable discussion with media members Monday, and he doubled down on his decision to make the controversial trade, saying: "There's no regrets on the trade. Part of it is doing the best thing for the Mavs."

Seeing as he faced them in the playoffs last year, the Los Angeles Lakers plan to rely on Luka Doncic's experiences in playing the Timberwolves, this year's Round 1 opponent, after the superstar defeated Minnesota as a member of the Dallas Mavericks.
