Mark Cuban was interested in getting his team back. The billionaire sold 73 percent of his stake in the Mavericks to the Adelson family for $3. 5 billion in December 2023 after 23 years as an owner, only to see the franchise’s fortunes take a turn for the worse in the years that followed – including the ill-fated trade of superstar Luka Doncic to the Lakers in February 2025.
