The move is a signal the Mavericks are moving on from the widely criticized trade that sent superstar Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers for a package headlined by Davis last year. Former general manager Nico Harrison, who was fired by Dallas in November, engineered the middle-of-the-night deal that angered fans. Trade speculation had surrounded Davis ever since Harrison was let go following a slow start to the season. The Wizards are sending Khris Middleton, AJ Johnson, Malaki Branham and Marvin Bagley III to the Mavericks along with two first-round draft picks and three second-rounders, the person told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the deal had yet to be approved by the NBA. Washington is getting three guards from Dallas in Jaden Hardy, D'Angelo Russell and Dante Exum. ___ AP NBA: https://apnews.com/hub/NBA
