Fresh off coming to terms on a three-year, $126 million deal with Kyrie Irving, Mavericks owner Mark Cuban is making sure to put it all out on the table. While he’s raved about Irving numerous times over the past year and come to the 31-year-old guard’s defense, he’s also been candid about another topic: Luka Dončić.
When joining SiriusXM NBA Radio, Cuban discussed that both Dončić and Kyrie know Dallas is “Luka’s team.”
“I think Kyrie has matured to the point now where he knows it’s Luka’s team,” Cuban said. “Luka knows it’s Luka’s team, Kyrie knows it’s Luka’s team, and that’s what’s important. And he’s willing to play more of a shooting guard role, and then when Luka is out, we have a point guard who can score and create for other guys, they’re both players who make their teammates better, and we didn’t have that before.”
