Dallas Mavericks minority owner Mark Cuban is facing calls from his own former employees to flee the Texas city following recent controversy.
The NBA organization recently descended into a meltdown when the team traded away its biggest star, Luka Doncic, to the Los Angeles Lakers.
And despite selling his majority stake in the Mavericks in 2023, Cuban, who has been outspoken critic of Donald Trump's agenda in Washington DC, has found himself in the firing line.
Last week, a former Mavericks event manager, Gavin Mulloy, took aim at the billionaire on Facebook, claiming that he 'should be run out of Dallas,' for his role in the Doncic saga.
Yet, the former 'Shark Tank' personality, who apparently had nothing to do with the transaction orchestrated by General Manager Nico Harrison, furiously hit back.
Taking to the comments, Cuban wrote: 'Hey Gavin Mulloy how much of a bonus did you get when I sold?'

Cuban can’t stand the difference there.
He is leftist scum. There is hope that he becomes road scum.
We had part of a season ticket package during the Nowitzki era. The new owner is only interested in new stadium and casino built at tax payer expense. They can take their casino and the Mavs to Oklahoma for all I care.
Hahahahaha love it.
If you read the whole article, he is right. This guy gladly took his money for many years and was well paid and now stabbing him in the back over something he didn’t have a hand in.
I don’t like Cuban at all, but that doesn’t make him wrong on this.
I think we’ve seen this before.
Frank Costanza: What the hell did you trade Jay Buhner for?! He had 30 home runs, over 100 RBIs last year, he’s got a rocket for an arm, you don’t know what the hell you’re doing!
All NBA players look alike.
How about you let him stay in Dallas you get the **** out.
Cuban got lucky during the dot com frenzy of 1994 or so. Sold a stupid company to a stupid buyer for stock and hedged the buy.
He’s never done anything else of note.
So do all leftist lesbians. Rachel Maddow, Rosie O’Donnell, Mark Cuban.
Cuban to me is just someone that built an electronic empire that produced nothing but patrons, kinda like TikTok, sold it for billions and now seems to think he is smart enough to rule the world.
“Mark Cuban loves to talk about how he “invented” internet streaming. How he turned a small company into a $5.7 billion empire. How he outsmarted the system. But dig a little deeper, and the cracks in that story start to show. Because the truth—the real, documented, undeniable truth—is that the idea wasn’t his. The technology wasn’t his. The empire wasn’t his.”
Whether you like his politics or not, Cuban was interested in putting a successful team on the floor.
The only thing I care about from the owners of any teams that I follow is that they spend what it takes to win.
Once an a-hole, always an a-hole
Jimmy Kimmel seems to think so. That’s him below, appearing in a blackface skit (not kidding). Such an appearance would get any conservative fired. But not a liberal.
Cuban is an ignorant punk.
