Mark Cuban Says Milwaukee Bucks Sale A Bargain

April 18, 2014 by  

Mark Cuban Says Milwaukee Bucks Sale A Bargain, Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban considers the sale price of approximately $550 million for the Milwaukee Bucks to be a bargain, suggesting the true value of NBA franchises is north of $1 billion.

Longtime Bucks owner Herb Kohl announced Wednesday that he had reached an agreement to sell the team to hedge-fund billionaires Wesley Edens and Marc Lasry, a deal subject to approval by the NBA and its board of governors.

“I think they got off cheap,” Cuban said. “I think that was a bargain. I think it’s worth a lot more. I think it’s worth a lot more than that. I think someone got a bargain. You can’t look backwards. You’ve got to look forward. You don’t value teams based off what happened in the past.”

In January, Forbes valued the Bucks at $405 million, the lowest among the NBA’s 30 teams.

But Cuban, who paid a then-record $285 million for the Mavericks in 2000, believes the NBA is in the midst of a business boom. Asked whether the league should consider adding an expansion team, Cuban said he would be on board, as long as the price was steep.

“I’m not opposed to it,” Cuban said. “This is just me talking, but we’d be crazy to sell it for under a billion dollars.”
