DONN NELSON President of Basketball Operations & General Manager, Dallas Mavericks ![]() One of the most respected minds in the NBA, Donnie Nelson is involved in every aspect of the Mavericks basketball operations. Nelson, who owns 34 years of NBA experience, came to Dallas on Jan. 2, 1998, after three seasons as an assistant coach with the Phoenix Suns. Nelson was instrumental in rebuilding a team that suffered a decadelong playoff drought into a perennial playoff team and championship contender. Under Nelson, the Mavericks have won 57.9% (626 of 1,082) of their games with three 60+ win seasons, including a franchise-record 67-win season in 2007, which tied for the sixth-best record in NBA history. The Mavericks are also one of only six NBA franchises to win 60 games or more three times in a five-year span. During his tenure, the Mavericks have made the playoffs in 15 of the last 19 seasons, been to the Western Conference Finals three times, advanced to the NBA Finals twice, captured their first Division title in 20 years in 2007 and won their first World Championship in 2011. Nelson successfully coached the Mavericks while his father and former head coach, Don Nelson, was recovering from cancer surgery in 2000-01. Donnie led the team to a 15-8 record while serving as head coach. He was the top assistant to his father at Golden State, where he served the organization a total of eight seasons (1986-94). Nelson was also a regional scout for the Milwaukee Bucks for two seasons (1984-86). |
