PHOENIX — It’s not every day that Patrick Dumont visits an opposing NBA arena, but the Mavericks governor sat courtside at Mortgage Matchup Center on Tuesday to watch his team attempt to snap a seven-game losing streak.

The team's new partnership with Creative Artists Agency signals the start of a broader vision for reimagining the fan experience beyond the American Airlines Center.

"Why would the Adelsons sell the Mavs just two years after buying the team? Because casino gambling is not coming to Texas anytime soon, and the only reason the Adelsons bought the Mavs was to serve as the anchor of a massive new casino-resort-arena," wrote Kratovil on "X."

The Dallas Mavericks have retained CAA Sports to lead the franchise’s commercial strategy for the development of a new arena, a significant step in the team’s journey to move into a new home in five years.

Amid swirling rumors of Mark Cuban buying back the team, the Mavericks will remain under the ownership of Patrick Dumont and Miriam Adelson.

Marc Stein reports that Dumont confirmed the Dallas Mavericks are not for sale and plans to increase their ownership stake over time.

Unfortunately for the Lakers, star guard Luka Doncic won’t be available for the game against his former franchise. Doncic has been ruled out against Dallas due to a left hamstring strain. It will be the fourth consecutive game missed by Doncic due to the issue.

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.
