According to reports, Luka Doncic and the Mavericks' front office might not be on the same level. However, it might have some eventual effects on the Mavericks. However, as per the reports, Doncic's problem is with executive Haralabos Voulgaris – who was previously a gambler. It is also unclear as to why Doncic is frustrated with Voulgaris, but they have had disagreements. 

Doncic, per The Athletic, was unhappy with Voulgaris leaving the game in the final period. Later, the Mavericks star apparently explained that he looked at it as the executive giving up on their team. In February, Doncic was seen snapping at Voulgaris. The latter tried to placate Doncic, who snapped while telling him not to ask him to calm down. 

Doncic is due for an extension soon, while Voulgaris' contract will expire soon. That being said, team owner Mark Cuban is said to support the executive and has even voiced support on social media. Cuban had spoken about The Athletic article, dismissing it. However, a problem lies in the team's postseason performance.
