By now you’ve probably read or heard it. Certainly it’s a Dallas Mavericks talker, albeit vague in detail and murky in substance.
Purportedly, according to NBA insider Marc Stein, unidentified local investors have indicated “tangible interest” in teaming with Mark Cuban to buy back majority interest in the Mavericks from the Patrick Dumont and Miriam Adelson families.
Stein’s stature as a self-described NBA correspondent, with 1.4 million X followers, no doubt has helped the report gain legs, but even Cuban told The Dallas Morning News on Wednesday that any sale scenario seems far-fetched.
“I get asked fairly often if I would be part of a group if they could buy the team,” he wrote to The News. “I tell them all the same thing: I don’t see them selling.”
