What’s Next for Mark Cuban, Mavericks After $3.5B Sale?

  • Mark Cuban is selling his majority stake in the Mavs to Casino magnate Miriam Adelson.
  • Cuban is hoping to create a new “casino-like” experience for Mavericks fans attending games.
Joe Camporeale-USA TODAY Sports

Mark Cuban is selling a majority stake in the Dallas Mavericks to Miriam Adelson, widow of casino magnate Sheldon Adelson, at a $3.5 billion valuation. Cuban will retain control of the team’s basketball operations while potentially collaborating with Adelson on a new arena and surrounding development. The sale and Cuban’s coming departure from “Shark Tank” is raising questions about the billionaire entrepreneur’s future.

Plus, we hear from UNC field hockey legend Erin Matson, who went from on-field star to head coach in one year, continuing the Tar Heels’ dominance with a national championship earlier this month.
