DALLAS - Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban, who lost in a bid to purchase to the Chicago Cubs, apparently still has some interest in owning a Major League Baseball team.
Amid several reports that he’d be interested in buying the Los Angeles Dodgers, who are not for sale, Cuban says “if it’s a perfect deal” he’s interested.
The messy divorce of Dodgers owner Frank McCourt and his wife, Jamie, raises questions about the team’s future.
But Cuban insisted Tuesday night before the Mavericks’ game against Houston that he’s “not on the prowl” to get a team.
“It’s just one more business opportunity,” Cuban said. “If it’s the right deal, I’m going to do it. And if not, I’m not.”
