Mark Cuban regrets selling Mavericks to Adelson and Dumont families

Former Dallas Mavericks majority owner Mark Cuban says he regrets selling the team to the Adelson and Dumont families. Cuban made the deal in December 2023, maintaining a minority share within the organization, but now says that he wishes he could take it back.

During an interview on the “Intersection” podcast Tuesday March 31, Cuban said, “I don’t regret selling,” then clarified, “I regret who I sold to. I made a lot of mistakes in the process, and I’ll leave it at that.”

At the time of the deal, Cuban was adamant that he would remain involved with the team’s basketball operations. However, that hasn’t happened. It is well-known how furious Cuban was with former GM Nico Harrison’s decision to trade away star guard Luka Doncic in February 2025. ESPN reports that Cuban was also among the people telling Dumont to fire Harrison after the deal was done.
