Quentin Grimes' zinger to the Mavs: "If Doncic is fat and leads you to the Finals, you let him be fat"

Nico Harrison will be forever haunted by criticism for trading the Slovenian to the Lakers

More than a month later, most fans still can't believe the transfer of Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers. Nico Harrison continues to receive a lot of criticism. And it seems like they will follow him for the rest of his life.

The latest to criticize the move has been Quentin Grimes. Ironically, the player was also traded from the Dallas Mavericks this winter. In exchange for Caleb Martin, he was sent to the Philadelphia 76ers.

In statements collected by the New York Times, Grimes strongly criticizes Harrison's and the Mavs' decision, and the justification they gave by saying they traded him due to weight issues.

"It's just a narrative around him. Once a narrative is out there, everyone just runs with it. Say what they may, if he weighs 122 (kilos) and gets to the end, then let him weigh 122. It's insane," said Quentin Grimes.
