      Like even if he wanted out and would only resign with the Lakers how do you not get a better return?

          Didn’t Cuban sell recently or did I imagine that?

          Must have some blackmail on him then since this is the worst trade I’ve seen in my life

            From what I remember he sold but, was still running the team. And only sold because he was guaranteed full control of the team after the sale.

            I could definitely be wrong though so do fact check me.

              He sold the majority of his stake a couple years ago but it seems like he is still involved to some extent
