In FanDuels’ Run It Back NBA show, Chandler Parsons — a former Mavericks player — revealed that he texted Cuban about the trade. And Cuban’s reaction was so appropriate. Chandler Parsons texted Mark Cuban about the trade:

As the fallout continues from the blockbuster trade that sent Anthony Davis to Dallas and Luka Doncic to Los Angeles, it's clear that the power centers of both teams have shifted. It's also certain that the truth about LeBron James ' role in this deal has consequences nearly as jolting as the trade itself.

Although he remains a minority owner of the team, Cuban has stepped back from day-to-day basketball operations since the Adelson family acquired majority control in late 2023.
