The wrongful termination lawsuit filed by former Dallas Mavericks general manager Donnie Nelson against the team is scheduled to go to trial Dec. 10, according to court documents.

In the lawsuit, which was filed in March 2022, Nelson claims he was fired by the Mavericks in retaliation after he reported that owner Mark Cuban's "right-hand person" allegedly sexually harassed and assaulted Nelson's nephew in a hotel room during the 2020 All Star Weekend in Chicago.

Rogge Dunn, an attorney for Nelson, did not immediately respond to a message seeking comment. The Mavericks also did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
